life... but how to live it? - ladders lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
tell me, what makes life worth living?
tell me, what keeps you from giving up?
he keeps on reaching for the top

[verse 2]
just to find another ladder on another wall
just to feel another urge and to see another goal
and as he climbs he’s growing old

[chorus 1]
he’s bound to fall
he’s gonna fall
he’s growing old
his fingers weakens and he falls

[verse 3]
step by step he’s climbing, climbing
leaving all his good friends behind him
can’t afford to carry that weight

[verse 4]
he knows what he’s gotta do to get rid of his conscience
his conscience, he’s gotta get rid of his conscience
so he chops it all off to replace it with a tie
[chorus 2]
talk is cheap
time is running out
talk is worthless when there’s nothing left to talk about
talk is cheap
time is running out
talk is worthless when there’s nothing left to talk about

[verse 5]
so what do you think it’s gonna be like up there?
do the strong winds blow up there?
can you see the bright light up there?
are you closer to god up there?

[verse 6]
will there be enough room up there?
for you? for me?
for anyone at all with a tiny little bit of humanity
left in the back of their minds?
i doubt it, as i start to get used to those boots
they’re stomping on my head all the time
constantly trying their best to kick me
(kicking me further down)

[verse 7]
i see their ways, see their values
see they’re hollow
they’ve got nothing left inside of their corrupted minds
but fear and a secret urge to fly
and the urge to keep on climbing
and climbing, and climbing
and it goes on and on
[verse 2]
just to find another ladder on another wall
just to feel another urge and to see another goal
and as he climbs he’s growing old

[chorus 1]
he’s bound to fall
he’s gonna fall
he’s growing old
his fingers weakens and he falls

[outro]
he’s got nothing to lose, and he smiles
as he spreads his featherless wings, and he flies
the feeling just blows his mind, and he cries out loud:
“look at me, i’m finally free!”

if this could only last forever
nothing ever lasts forever
