Song: The Ladder

I’ve been down in this hole so long I can’t recall

Another way to live outside of these four walls

I’m reaching up to find a rung that I can grab

To lift me out of all this emptiness and drab

I know there’s got to be a little light above my head

I know I’ve got to climb this ladder now before I’m dead

There’s something burning in my soul and I can’t turn away

I’ve had enough of darkness this is not where I will stay

I thought I knew it all and I was in control

I burned the candle at both ends, it took its toll

And as the shadows started filling up my space

I realized I lost my way, I fell from grace

I know there’s got to be a little light above my head

I know I’ve got to climb this ladder now before I’m dead

There’s something burning in my soul and I can’t turn away

I’ve had enough of darkness this is not where I will stay
