Ladder Lyrics

Calm now

So you don't see it on the surface

How I've been dreaming about purpose

Cause I can't find mine

Darkness lives in my blood now

It says it wants to crawl out

But I don't want to go down like this

But patience started feeling like complacency

Then started feeling like my destiny

My head doesn't like me

My brain always fights me

My body is still a jar

I'm my worst enemy

My reflection's dead to me

Can't stomach seeing what I've become

So I won't

So I won't

So I won't

I'll keep my eyes closed

I'm on the edge but everyone's counting on me

(I'll keep my eyes closed)

I'm making ground but it's shaking under my feet

(I'll keep my eyes closed)

I'm standing in the foreground

Wishing there was nothing to see

(I'll keep my eyes closed)

What do I have to do to get me back to me?

Just don't keep your eyes closed

(Listen)

(Listen)

You can't keep your eyes closed

(Come back and listen)

(Listen)

Just don't keep your eyes closed

I'm gone now

But I'm just coasting on the come down

See, I've been practicing out loud saying

"I don't want to live like this"

I've been waiting

To outlive my expectations

But when I think back I know that I already did

I won't be my downfall

I'll show up for the call

Make good on the promise that I'll stay

I will accept my limits

And pull back when I hit them

But when I break

When I break

When I break

When I break

I'll keep my eyes closed

I'm on the edge but everyone's counting on me

(I'll keep my eyes closed)

I'm making ground but it's shaking under my feet

(I'll keep my eyes closed)

I'm standing in the foreground

Wishing there was nothing to see

(I'll keep my eyes closed)

What do I have to do to get me back to me?

Just don't keep your eyes closed

(Listen)

(Listen)

You can't keep your eyes closed

(Come back and listen)

(Listen)

Just don't keep your eyes closed

I'll come back

What's missing?

You're missing it

Get back

What's missing

You're missing it

You're missing it
