[Verse 1]

Look into my eyes

See what I've become

Don't you be so surprised

That the lies are undone

[Chorus]

Come on baby

You know better

I've been hanging on by a tether

[Verse 2]

Forget all that you knew

All that you have been told

And we'll start a-new

Turn this leaf right into gold

[Pre-Chorus]

And maybe I can see you in

Slidin' out and through your grin

[Chorus]

Come on baby

You know better

I've been hanging on by a tether

Come on baby

You know better

I've been hanging on by a tether

[Bridge]

I had it all wrong

And now that you're gone

I see so much better

But the tether is blown

I wish I had realized

Look and behold

Someone who knows me

Better than I know

[Chorus]

Come on baby

You know better

I've been hanging on by a tether

Come on baby

You know better

I'm here hanging on by a tether

By a tether

Just

By a tether
