The Ascent Lyrics

I walked a road of silent stone

Footsteps traced but not my own.

The sky would whisper stars would weep

Knowledge buried vast and deep.

I reached for truths that burned my hands

Built on dust and shifting sands.

Falling forward losing sight

Blinded by the need for light.

Oh wisdom comes in fractured lines

Through shattered glass and borrowed time.

Every question births a scar

Every fall a guiding star.

I climb I break I rise again

The path is rough but it won't end.

The echoes teach the echoes fade

Lessons carved in night and jade.

For every crest a shadow looms

For every dawn the dark resumes.

I chased the sun I drowned in rain

Tasted wonder swallowed pain.

Still the fire calls my name

A hunger wrapped in endless flame.

Oh wisdom comes in fractured lines

Through shattered glass and borrowed time.

Every question births a scar

Every fall a guiding star.

I climb I break I rise again

The path is rough but it won't end.

No summit waits no final key

Only steps and endless sea.

For truth's a tide it comes it goes

And only fools will claim to know.

Here we stand

No summit waits no final key

Only steps and endless sea.

For truth's a tide it comes it goes

And only fools will claim to know.
