I'm climbin' this ladder
My head in the clouds
I hope that it matters
I'm havin' my doubts
I'm watchin' the skaters
Fly by on the lake
Ice frozen six feet deep
How long does it take?
I look out on peaceful lands
With no war nearby
An ocean of shakin' hands
That grab at the sky
I'm singin' this borrowed tune
He took from the Rolling Stones
Alone in this empty room
Too wasted to write my own
I'm climbin' this ladder
My head in the clouds
I hope that it matters
