I've been crawlingnTo the mountainsnSkinned my knees with blood and hopenIf I stayed standingnI'd be drowningnThe rising waters made me chokennAs I am getting nearernMy mission is coming clearnn[Chorus]nI know this roadnNever seen it beforenI know what lies behind unopened doorsnI saw the signs from the distant shorenThat I couldn't ignorennI'm heading for higher groundnnI left everyone behind menI took everything I knownHalf way up and I'm still climbingnStill a million miles to gonnThe water is drawing nearernAs everything disappearsnn[Chorus]nnI'm heading for higher groundnnAnd my foot slipsnBut I don't quitnAnd my hand grips the rocknSomething pulls deepnFrom within menTil I get there, I won't stopnn[Chorus: x2]nnI'm heading for higher, higher groundnnWay up here, the air is thinnFeels like I could go so far
