[Verse 1]
I watched the flesh alight
From grey to white to blue, I belong
I fought the day that night
The guides had set the gaze upon
Shifting me into the place
But knowing me I'm dead weight
[Chorus]
I knew that when I was through
I'd build a ladder and I'd harvest the moon
[Verse 2]
The world got cold and now that I hold
Your mother's swelling hands
I knew in time it crossed my mind
That this was more than just by chance
Shifting me into my best
Even though I had some whiskey left
[Chorus]
I knew that when I was through
I'd build a ladder and I'd harvest thе moon
For you
I knew that when I was through
I'd build a ladder and I'd harvеst the moon
[Bridge]
We would all fall away with force
Taking on what was set before us
Down, now, the moon in tow
And what was left of the afterglow
The last day to collect the stars
Taking back what we thought was ours
[Chorus]
And I knew that when I was through
I'd build a ladder and I'd harvest the moon
I'd build a ladder and I'd harvest the moon
I'd build a ladder and I'd harvest the moon
Build a ladder and I'd harvest the moon
I knew that when I was through
I'd build a ladder and I'd harvest the moon
I watched the flesh alight
From grey to white to blue, I belong
I fought the day that night
The guides had set the gaze upon
Shifting me into the place
But knowing me I'm dead weight
[Chorus]
I knew that when I was through
I'd build a ladder and I'd harvest the moon
[Verse 2]
The world got cold and now that I hold
Your mother's swelling hands
I knew in time it crossed my mind
That this was more than just by chance
Shifting me into my best
Even though I had some whiskey left
[Chorus]
I knew that when I was through
I'd build a ladder and I'd harvest thе moon
For you
I knew that when I was through
I'd build a ladder and I'd harvеst the moon
[Bridge]
We would all fall away with force
Taking on what was set before us
Down, now, the moon in tow
And what was left of the afterglow
The last day to collect the stars
Taking back what we thought was ours
[Chorus]
And I knew that when I was through
I'd build a ladder and I'd harvest the moon
I'd build a ladder and I'd harvest the moon
I'd build a ladder and I'd harvest the moon
Build a ladder and I'd harvest the moon
I knew that when I was through
I'd build a ladder and I'd harvest the moon
