The Ladder

We've been hidden from a truth worth living for Precious are the moments leaving us Worship all the gold you bought and sold It's been all we've known Absurd existence It's been all we've known We came from the stars We came here from millions of miles To grow from the earth just to end up back inside it The time in between that we spend To march in a similar fashion The ladders we climb, have the same nails in our own coffins Bloodshot in a crowd of ravenous eyes Bloodshot in a crowd of ravenous eyes Absurd existence It's been all we've known I remember the way you reflect off the moon Fall from the grey in passing We've given up the meaning, the reasons we're living our lives Giving up our lives I remember the way you reflect off the moon Fall from the grey in passing Filling up with visions I've been Filling up with visions when you fall Reposition, it's life or death The knife's a mirror, it meets the neck Run it Cleanse and profit Absurd existence It is such a shame we've learned to love
