Higher ground

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
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
