[Verse 1]
I really tried to be good
But goodness, won't come easy to me
You're too good in your own ways
In others, you're evil like me
[Chorus 1]
When they call my name, I'm the first to smile
I put a few feet wrong on the moral pile
When I break the rank, I'm the first to gloat
And its a nice trip down
In the eye of the rope
In the eye of the rope
[Verse 2]
I put a coin in a cold hand
Still I seem to hurt everyone
Now, I'm the dud, I'm the short strand
I'm the burning wink in the line of a shotgun
[Chorus 2]
You in your tall lighthouse with that broken light
I'm gonna suffer on your rocks if it takes all night
You're the one clean soul in the back of a church
Go on, avert your eyes
This is going to hurt
This is going to hurt
I really tried to be good
But goodness, won't come easy to me
You're too good in your own ways
In others, you're evil like me
[Chorus 1]
When they call my name, I'm the first to smile
I put a few feet wrong on the moral pile
When I break the rank, I'm the first to gloat
And its a nice trip down
In the eye of the rope
In the eye of the rope
[Verse 2]
I put a coin in a cold hand
Still I seem to hurt everyone
Now, I'm the dud, I'm the short strand
I'm the burning wink in the line of a shotgun
[Chorus 2]
You in your tall lighthouse with that broken light
I'm gonna suffer on your rocks if it takes all night
You're the one clean soul in the back of a church
Go on, avert your eyes
This is going to hurt
This is going to hurt
