Ladder to the Sun

Verse 1

Fifty torches burned down to the nub

I dug through the dark with a busted shovel

Bedrock below me and hunger above

Stone after stone after stone

Pre-Chorus

Then the wall cracked open

Blue light in the black

I've been swinging for hours

And I'm not turning back

Chorus

Diamonds in the deep

Diamonds in the deep

I struck the seam and I started to weep

Diamonds in the deep

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

Mine mine mine

Oh-oh-oh

Mine mine mine

Verse 2

Ladder by ladder I climbed to the sun

Squinting at grass that was greener than green

My pickaxe is chipped and my armor is worn

But something is waiting for me

Pre-Chorus

I see her on the hilltop

Standing in the wheat

Two days in the caverns

And now my life's complete

Chorus

Diamonds in the deep

Diamonds in the deep

I struck the seam and I started to weep

Diamonds in the deep

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

Mine mine mine

Oh-oh-oh

Mine mine mine

Bridge

Every cave is a promise

Every climb is a road

Every torch is a signal

Every stone is a home

Chorus

Diamonds in the deep

Diamonds in the deep

I struck the seam and I started to weep

Diamonds in the deep

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

Mine mine mine

Oh-oh-oh

She's mine mine mine
