Ladder

from Finer Times by Caius Hubris

lyrics

I feel alone now-
The last man on earth is not hyperbole.
I feel alone now-
Let’s zoom in on the story that is you and me.
Tell me if you loved me dearly, would you still come to hear me,
and would you die for truth or just keep living insincerely?
I feel alone now-
The last man on earth is not hyperbole.
I feel alone now-
Let’s zoom in on the story that is you and me.
Tell me if you loved me dearly, would you still come to hear me,
and would you die for truth or just keep living insincerely?

I was climbing up the ladder, it became depleted.
It’s my own hubris that told me the pattern just repeated.
Empty space there should have been another rung.
I thought how could it be ending now, I’ve only just begun!?
Always skittish around ladders now I know what for.
It’s not like walking down the hallway toward an open door.
It’s not a portal to a different destination,
it takes you where you were just at a higher elevation.
One you can fall from if you’re not inclined to fly.
How many times I’ve hit the ground when aiming for the sky.
“Shoot for the moon, and if you miss end up among the stars... ^_^”
There’s nothing inspirational about being dead on Mars!
Enjoy my last hurrah, and all the change I made.
It’s not like any ghost can boast this kind of dying day.
It’s close to curtain call, and for my final bow.
So with my last breath I must avow...

I feel alone now-
The last man on earth is not hyperbole.
I feel alone now-
Let’s zoom in on the story that is you and me.
Tell me if you loved me dearly, would you still come to hear me,
and would you die for truth or just keep living insincerely?
I feel alone now-
The last man on earth is not hyperbole.
I feel alone now-
Let’s zoom in on the story that is you and me.
Tell me if you loved me dearly, would you still come to hear me,
and would you die for truth or just keep living insincerely?

Forget the mission!
For far too long have I been your satellite;
hanging tough in upper orbit, practicing to get my greeting right.
Keeping you arms reach - more like a mile high!
Feeling dead inside when I see you with another guy.
So in the end, it all comes down to you.
You’re the only person in the world I dread would disapprove.
Radio’s delayed, I was dead before you knew.
I love you.
