Maybe I'm not as smart as I thought
  As I come back down
  Entertain the sun
  Beg it to go on
  Don't leave me all alone down here
  Cause I don't have a doubt
  That I am without
  A way out of this
  
  (Chorus)
  And I climb
  This wasted time
  I've been in
  And I find
  I change my mind
  Again you win
  
  Can you take the ashes that I've burned
  At your expense
  Cause I can't tell you why
  All the things that I haven't thought to ask you for
  I am at the end
  I cannot pretend
  That everything's OK this time
  
  (Repeat chorus)
  
  I can't walk away from you
  I can't deny what you say is true
  I can't understand everything you do
  Still I can't walk away
  
  (Repeat chorus)
  
  When I climb
  When I climb
  When I climb
