Lyrics:
As I stare into the distance
With no absolution in sight
Rest my soul in a rocking chair
Where my body surrenders tonight
Dim the light that once shun upon me
Years and years rolling in at once
Last grain of sand on the hourglass
Left none the wiser, crown of the dunce
See the daylight rise over the mountains
Cast a shadow the color of fear
This old heathen, he might vanish soon enough
But regrets, they won’t disappear
Ascending
I’m ascending
I’m ascending
I’m ascending

Welcome my friend
We’ve all been waiting here for you
You’re gonna love this place
Time and time again I’ve sat down to ask myself
If I deserved to live a life so plentiful and well
In the mirror I just see a sinner incapable of rejoice
If I could go back, just a little while, I’d erase every single choice
Lord, take my soul at will
There’s still a hole to fill
Purify me and bathe me in your wisdom
Tell me, am I worthy of your kingdom’s doors?
Now, I must add, we’ve made a few changes since the last time
I hope you don’t mind
I’ll just let him explain it to you

I open the gates and wait to see
The lord sitting in front of me
I kneel down, face down, hands on the clouds
He clears his throat and proclaims out loud
“I’ve witnessed my children keep growing for centuries
And every single year they’ve left me unpleased
Despite my best efforts, they lie, they steal, they kill
But when it’s time to go home, they act like their record is clean
I could just send them down below, yes, I’ve done that many times
Yet when one gets easily bored they like to shake things up
So I’ve made up a little game and I’d like you to play
Great rewards for you await, but there’s also price to pay
You could bet it all and go upstairs, but you’re facing the risk
Of being wrong and denied entry, and then you’ll cease to exist
Or you could face your misdeeds and wander down below
But if you’re wrong, there’s no turning back, you won’t come back anymore”
I stand back up and reflect on what he said
And then I asked him: “Which way should I go?”
God simply laughed and told me:
“How should I know? You should’ve figured it out by now”
Can’t decide whether I should follow the light
Or forever burn for what I’ve done, the things I have implied
I’m searching deep inside my soul and all I see is hate
My mind is clouded, all made up, deserving of this fate

Push forward to the next step
To get consumed by the flames
Feel my psyche incinerate
And it’s only me to blame
As my last remainings fade
From my daring sacrifice
I hear the Lord sigh as he says
“He would’ve fit nice in paradise”
Live and forgive
Let yourself grieve
Pain turns to scars
Bleed into stars
