I've been crawling
To the mountains
Skinned my knees
With blood and hope
If I stayed standing
I'd be drowning
The rising waters
Made me choke
As I am getting nearer
My mission is coming clear

I know this road
Never seen it before
I know what lies behind
Unopened doors
I saw the signs
From a distant shore
That I couldn't ignore
I'm heading for higher ground

I left everyone behind me
I took everything I know
Halfway up and I'm still climbing
Still a million miles to go
The water is drawling nearer
As everything dissappears

I know this road
Never seen it before
I know what lies behind
Unopened doors
I saw the signs
From a distant shore
That I couldn't ignore
I'm heading for higher ground

And my foot slips
But I don't quit
And my hand grips the rock
Something pulls deep
From within me
Till I get there I wont stop

I know this road
Never seen it before
I know what lies behind
Unopened doors
I saw the signs
From a distant shore
That I couldn't ignore (x2)

I'm heading for higher, higher ground

Way up here the air is thinner
Feel like I could go so far
