The Ascent Lyrics

Higher, higher

Praise the light, bring the light

Off the top

The above

Put it somewhere

You'll be higher, higher

Praise the light, bring the light

Off the top

Lose enough

And you'll be damned like I had been

Swimming in the sea

Hypothermic mind

Goin' nowhere

Put me on a leash my babe

So I won't drift away

Walked in the abyss and I was 'boutta drown

Wanderin' and hoped I got found

Traced a line into the sedimental ground

Washed out, I got confounded

I kept treadin' higher

'Till I reached the mire

To escape the fire

Realised I had to go

Higher, higher

Praise the light, bring the light

Off the top

Lose enough

And you'll be damned like I had been

Time is unchangeable

Never at rest

And my death's inescapable

I must admit

My heart's numb on the daily now

I'll be remissed if

My ignorance

Clearin' my end

Will be engendered as long as I stand

Swimming in the sea

Hypothermic mind

Goin' nowhere

Put me on a leash my babe

So I won't drift away

Higher, higher

Praise the light, bring the light

Off the top

The above

Put it somewhere

You'll be higher, higher

Praise the light, bring the light

Off the top

Lose enough

And you'll be damned like I had been
