Should I put my weapons down?Turn and walk away, don't look aroundThey want me to say my lessons learnedDidn't think I'd find so much strength in the hurtSo I push away that feelingThere's no truth in what they're sayingNever giving, only takingFrom this I'm escapingAscensionJust sky holding meOh, to rise like an angelJust to kiss every starSee the clouds silver liningFlying high and farOh, AscensionThat's what I wantTake me to that hallowed groundHigh above so safe and soundDo your best to clip my wingsYou'll see my skin is thicker than you thinkSo I lock away that madnessKeep a motion in a tight fistGonna hold my head up highUntil I reach the summitAscensionJust sky holding meOh, to rise like an angelJust to kiss every starSee the clouds silver liningFlying high and farOh, AscensionAscensionOh, oh, higherOh, oh, higherOh, oh, higher nowOh, oh, higherOh, oh, much higherOh, oh, much higher nowAscensionOh, to rise like an angelJust to kiss every starSee the clouds silver liningFlying high and farOh, AscensionJust sky holding meOh, to rise like an angelJust to kiss every starSee the clouds silver liningFlying high and farOh, AscensionAscensionNo matter what they sayYou'll rise again some dayFrom darkness into lightMay all your dreams take flight
