Slippery Slope

from Bitter Tears by Ella Blame

/

lyrics

Life is like a slippery slope.
Some day you think you reached the top,
Then you fall down, there is no rope
To hold you and to make you stop.

There was that day when you stretched out your hands,
I didn't think and held them tight.
You pulled me up into wonderful lands,
We reached the top and loved the height.

Sometimes there is darkness,
Sometimes there is hope
But I never will give up
To climb the slippery slope.

Sometimes there is darkness,
Sometimes there is hope
But I never will give up
To climb the slippery slope.

But then I fell down and you disappeared,
All came so quickly, it was really weird.
Now I'm alone, in front of the slope.
To see you again, this is my hope.

I even don't know if you really exist,
Still I can see you behind dark blue mist.
To reach for you in vain makes me mope
And life, I know, is like a slippery slope.

Sometimes there is darkness,
Sometimes there is hope
But I never will give up
To climb the slippery slope.

Sometimes there is darkness,
Sometimes there is hope
But I never will give up
To climb the slippery slope.

I even don't know if you really exist,
Still I can see you behind dark blue mist.
To reach for you in vain makes me mope
And life, I know, is like a slippery slope.

Sometimes there is darkness,
Sometimes there is hope
But I never will give up
To climb the slippery slope.

Sometimes there is darkness,
Sometimes there is hope
But I never will give up
To climb the slippery slope.
