Shipwreck A.D. Ascent Lyrics

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
