Ascent 歌词

Slowly it etches, jagged cracks appear The face of a lion, the sum of my fears As i walk it grows, steadily erupting Glacier teeth from its mouth Spawning clouds make up its mane From all the hate i try to redirect From all the pain i don't let affect My stone face, its like the mountain is me Solid to the eye, but melting underneath Callous and numb, i make my ascent Up this volcanic slope i try to pretend That i'm just indifferent Meanwhile the rage is overflowing Climbing higher to reach the summit Striving harder to overcome it The misery that dwells in me Wrath flowing through every vein I feel the knot begin to tie Internal pressure starts to rise Fangs of temper bite my chest With crushing jaws they overwhelm The lava, the angst, the eruption My uphill battle ensues I push the boulder just to watch it roll Amongst the smoldering flames below Cursed by my own despair I try to leave it and trudge on Climbing higher to reach the summit Striving harder to overcome it Climbing higher to be free of it Striving harder i overcame
