Broken Ladders Lyrics - Selah

You never asked me to be king 

Build my tower up to the sky 

So why do I try 

You never asked me to be rich 

Buy the things that gold can buy 

So why do I try 

All You ever wanted was my heart 

My heart, my simple heart 

To You that's all that really matters 

Why do I feel I have to reach 

Believe I have to rise 

When You never said I had to climb 

These broken ladders

You never asked me to be complete 

By myself, find all I need 

So why do I try 

Oh, You never asked me to stand alone 

Face the struggles on my own 

So why do I try 

When all You ever wanted was my heart 

My heart, my simple heart 

To You that's all that really matters 

Why do I feel I have to reach 

Believe I have to rise 

When You never said I had to climb 

These broken ladders 

'Cause all they do is take 

My eyes off of You 

Make me forget the truth

Believe I have to rise 

When You never said I had to climb 

Oh, You never said I had to climb 

These broken ladders 

Oh, these broken ladders
