The Ascent |
| This is the way that we hand control to gravity’s grip |
| The way that it goes |
| Before we can rise we must be laid low |
| Bloodied, alive, I make it to my knees |
| Only to pray they won’t forget me |
| Cast to the ground when I reached for the war |
| So climb |
| Rise in the rot and set the pace to stay |
| The heart is the way where the markers were laid |
| Higher again until we’re leaving our own |
| We climb |
| The fight and the form |
| The ever forward, mine |
| Boot to the hold |
| One tread at a time |
| Hand over hand |
| The path as it winds |
| So climb |
| So rise radiant |
| You are the way |
| You were born to the ascent |
| So rise, my radiant |
| With my pride, bear your heart into the end of me |
| There is no death |
| I am with you, my darling |
| If I am breathing through you |
| Death only is to wake |
| With the face of our fathers below |
| And no fear to follow the way forward |
| Love |
| There is no pride |
| I am with you, my darling |
| This is your time |
| And so into your hands I leave all that I could not reach |
| You are the worlds colliding |
| The sail unfurls |
| We have all been building worlds |
| Forward |
| Like loss could colour cloud and distance edify |
| A farewell to sunrise |
| The decaying heartbeat of the sky |
| So as the hills drink deep |
| We watch survivors trace their old calligraphy |
| In light |
| Forward |
| With all I took with me |
| A spite of my design |
| Too long the lesson |
| All it took to leave my hate to lie |
| What a privilege it is to watch the day’s last colour die |
| Teaching us to climb |
| Forward now |
| Through |
| Forward now |
| Through |
| And into your hands I leave all that I could not reach |
| You are the worlds colliding |
| We built a world |
| Your sails unfurled |
| Forward now |
| Through |
| Forward now |
| Through |
| The way is forward |
| The fall will take form into ascent |
| You are the sun |
| Rise radiant |
| Become the light alive |
| The fight and the climb |
| The strife, the day |
| We are the sun |
| Rise radiant |
| My love the way forward |
| The fall will take form into ascent |
| You are the sun |
| Rise radiant |
| Become the light alive |
| The fight and the climb |
| The strife, the day |
| We are the sun |
| Rise radiant, my love |
