lyrics

You are climbing and
I am standing still
I’d like to follow you but
My limbs aren’t moving

Nibbling at the crumbs that
Are cascading down from
Your glorified platform
Won’t stop me starving

Standing on the bottom
Rung of a long ladder
You’re treading on my head
I can’t climb much higher

The top of the ladder
Is invisible
There are snakes below me
I must climb higher

Standing on the bottom
Rung of a long ladder
You’re treading on my head
I can’t climb much higher

It is a long ladder
I’ve been bitten by a snake
Injecting venom inside me
Slowly paralysing me x3

It’s a long way from the top
Such a long way from the top
Such a long way to the top
