timeshares - ladder lyrics

Loading...

hey old man, i did bad tonight
i shuddered all the doors, i shut out the lights
and i never stopped to think
because thinking just could k!ll you
and i spent the night awake
does it sound familiar?

ali died last night, i wanted to inform you
you’d tell me how he’d hide in the ropes from foreman
and make it out alive
i think you were trying to warn me now
all the while listening to the sound
of your shaking son, terrified of the world around him

hey old man, i’ve got something more to ask you
when the vessel starts to go, did it feel like life p-ssed you?
is there weight to be given to the parallels i’m living?
i get shaken down by heights
and the ropes upon my back are giving way

is it why we do the things that we’re doing wrong now?
isn’t trust a funny thing, once you’ve gone and earned it?
do they ever learn, we never meant to burn it down?
and can you imagine the sound when your shaking son
picks up the phone and you’re gone

when the lights went down did you think there was still work to do?
“do they need me still?” or did you think
“yeah, i guess i could use a rest.”

and when i couldn’t bear to think
i had a bit to drink and climbed up a ladder
to the roof and nothing moved or mattered
the whole world seemed up just another rung
and i didn’t feel fear, just this longing for what came after
i wanted to tell you, dirty hand on my head saying
“son, it only gets better.”
so i keep climbing
i keep climbing
what else can i do, old man?
i keep climbing
