lyrics

Here is what it is
and here’s where it’s at
you’re stuck inside this rut, you can’t get out
you're sick of every breath that comes out of your mouth
and yet, you’ve come too far to quit
you want to start
you don't know where to start
your blood is curdled with the bitterness
but if you can haul your carcass from the filth
and crawl out of your lowest grossest parts
where you can't hear your temper tantrum heart
there’s got to be a better place than this
And though this way is strange for us
I know this path is dangerous
I know that you've been haunted
in your marrow and your mind
and though this way seems death to us
and though this stretch is treacherous
though you are exhausted,
here's the ladder, here's the spine
though you are exhausted –
climb
I know you think that you don't have the stuff
the heart is snarling on its leash
here’s where you've arrived
here’s where you're alive
you're paralysed with mania, with rage.
but deep within this cage of bone and cartilage
you know there is a better place than this
And though this way is strange for us
I know this path is dangerous
I know that you've been haunted
in your marrow and your mind
and though this way seems death to us
and though this stretch is treacherous
though you are exhausted
here's the ladder, here's the spine
though you are exhausted –
climb
