Still climbing the ladder
Still paying my dues
Don't wanna be headed anywhere though
Except back to you
Don't know where I'm going
Don't know where I'm from
Can't hold on to anything really
If it's already gone
Still climbing the ladder
Still paying my dues
Don't wanna get anywhere really
Except back to you
Held on for so long
But now that it's gone, gone, gone
Still searching for something to replace it
Held out for too long
No one can believe it
Think it's for somebody else
But all of the hardest lessons
You gotta learn for yourself
Still climbing the ladder
Still paying my dues
Don't wanna get anywhere really, yeah yeah
Except back to you
Held out for so long
But now that it's gone, gone, gone
Still searching
Still searching
Still searching, yeah
Still searching
Held out for too long
