Heaven’s Ladder

Look up heaven's ladder, see the angels climb down With their eyes all full of stars and their heads in the clouds Oblivious to danger With the failure to keep both feet on the ground And when the sun sets on you, then you go When you're shackled to the shadow and we're ghosts You could learn to leave the long lost days alone Down below, down below where there's nowhere else to go Just as far as nowhere, then you're on your own Anyone who's learned their lesson and burned their hands They'll steal someone else's answers if they can 'Cause cheating is better than guessing When the answer is that there's none to be had And when the sun sets on you, then you go When you're shackled to the shadow and we're ghosts You could learn to leave your long last days alone Down below, down below where there's nowhere else to go Just as far as nowhere, then you're on your own Now that you know how high the hook and ladder goes From the highest rung down to the lowest low And when the sun sets on you, then you go When you're shackled to the shadow and we're ghosts You could learn to leave your long last days alone Down below, down below where there's nowhere else to go Just as far as nowhere, then you're on your own
