Ladder Songtext
von Empire Fall

Dead
Before I could come back to life
A much needed clean slate
A new set of eyes
I climbed trough the belly of the beast that I birthed
A self imposed exile, my nose in the dirt

There′s no insult you can bark at me
I haven't already told myself
Your bullets, a bunch of empty shells
The triumph of I over, I over they
Cast me away
Sully my name
Your sticks and your stones will build a ladder for me
Leave me for dead
Thrown down a well
Your sticks and your stones will build a ladder for me


I fell into this hellhole
That I dug alone
A bottomless pit
Where I decomposed to bones
The tenth of my nine lives is finally here
This is all or nothing, my last frontier

There′s no insult you can bark at me
I haven't already told myself
Your bullets, a bunch of empty shells
The triumph of I over, I over they
Cast me away
Sully my name
Your sticks and your stones will build a ladder for me
Leave me for dead
Thrown down a well
Your sticks and your stones will build a ladder for me

Cast me away
Sully my name
Leave me for dead
Thrown down a well

I made it out the ditch
I'm done with all your shit
Now watch as I make you my bitch


There′s no insult you can bark at me
I haven′t already told myself
Your bullets, a bunch of empty shells
The triumph of I over, I over they
Cast me away
Sully my name
Your sticks and your stones will build a ladder for me
Leave me for dead
Thrown down a well
Your sticks and your stones will build a ladder for me
(Cast me away)
Cast me away
Sully my name
Your sticks and your stones will build a ladder for me
(Leave me for dead)
Leave me for dead
Thrown down a well
Your sticks and your stones will build a ladder for me
