Franz Ferdinand Always Ascending
Put your ladder down
Put your ladder down
Put your ladder down
Don't be concerned
It's just the way that gravity works round here
All slowly rising, falling patiently
Feel no
Feel no fear
Cirrus caress you
Cumulus kiss you
Raindrops of crystal
Whisper "we'll miss you"
But go
Let go
Always and always and always ascending
The opening line leaves an uncertain ending
Always and always and always ascending
The chords seem to pause, but ah never gonna resolve
Never going to resolve
Never going to resolve
Never going to resolve
Never going to resolve
Never going to resolve
Never going to resolve
Never going to resolve
Talk to me
Talk to me
C'mon talk to me
Talk to me
Yeah talk to me
Talk to me
Ah
And wake me up
C'mon wake me up
Waking up dry
Waking up dusty
Feeling remorse
Feeling thirsty
Bring me a cup
Bring me water
We can ascend
From this arrangement
We can see fate
As entertainment
Bring me a cup
But bring me water
Yeah, bring me water
Always and always and always ascending
The Shepard misleads so you think you're transcending
Always and always and always ascending
Pause the progression, but ah never gonna resolve
Never going to resolve
Never going to resolve
Never going to resolve
Never going to resolve
Never going to resolve
Never going to resolve
Never going to resolve
Talk to me
Talk to me
C'mon talk to me
Talk to me
Now talk to me
Talk to me
Ah
And then wake me up
C'mon wake me up
Waking up dry
Waking up dusty
Feeling remorse
Feeling thirsty
Bring me a cup
And bring me water
Yeah, bring me water
Yeah, bring me water
Bring me water
Bring me water, yeah
Put your ladder down
Put your ladder down
Put your ladder down
Put your ladder down
Put your ladder down
Put your ladder down
Cirrus caress you
Cumulus kiss you
Raindrops of crystal
Whisper "we'll miss you"
But go
Let go
