The 88 – At Least It Was Here Lyrics 9 years ago
Many people thinking it's about suicide or something negative made my heart hurt. I must confess when I listened for the first time to the words rope, dream, stay, tie, dead... my mind went there too (suicide). Hopefully someone else feels the same way. From a man to his lover:

Take my hands...
...and guide me
I really can't...
...make this(1) by myself
They(2)...
...don't approve of our love
They(2) are expecting the worst outcome

But I'll do it, cause I love you so much
I decide(1) to stay with you

But still, give me the tools
so I can dream(3) big of us
Hope of a future(3) [together]
They(2)...
...even say we are ruining our lives right now
They(2) are expecting the worst outcome

I decide(1) to stay with you
And all the people(2) that don't believe in us don't matter, they disapear

I'm tired of being submissive to their(2) opinion
I'm tired of how I used to
Pretend it didn't face me
just to not create conflict
But I can't live the rest of my life like that
They(2) don't realize our love is worth it
So I'm thriving to make a decision, head strong
Their(2) opinions are not the only way

Give me some more
Time in a dream
Give me the hope to run out of steam
Somebody said it can be here
We could be roped up, tied up, dead in a year

But I love you more than words can say
I can't count the reasons I should stay
One by one they all just fade away
Oh I love you more than words can say

But still, give me the tools
so I can dream(3) big of us
Hope of a future(3) [together]
They(2)...
...even say we are ruining our lives right now
They(2) are expecting the worst outcome

I'll do it, cause I love you so much
I decide(1) to stay with you
And all the people(2) that don't believe in us don't matter, they disappear
I decide(1) to stay with you
