Always Ascending Lyrics - Franz Ferdinand

[Intro] 

[Repeated throughout intro] 

Put your ladder down 

Put your ladder down 

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 

[Verse 1] 

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 ahh- 

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 

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 

Ahh 

[Pre-Chorus] 

Wake me up 

C'mon wake me up 

[Chorus 1] 

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 

Bring me water 

Bring me water 

[Verse 2] 

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 ahh- 

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 

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 

Ahh 

[Pre-Chorus] 

Wake me up 

C'mon wake me up 

[Chorus 2] 

Waking up dry 

Waking up dusty 

Feeling remorse 

Feeling thirsty 

Bring me a cup 

Bring me water 

Bring me water 

Bring me water 

Bring me water 

Bring me water, yeah
