Lyrics

[Intro]
The ladder still rusts in the same three places
I came up slow tonight, the way you used to

[Verse 1]
Your lunch cooler sat by the door every evening
The water tower went orange in the last of the light
You'd take the fire escape up and leave the TV going
I counted every minute till you came back inside

[Build]

[Chorus]
My coffee's going cold right where yours went cold
Eight floors down the street is still making its noise
You weren't running from us, you were just catching your breath
Ten minutes of sky, and I'll climb up with you

[Drop]

[Verse 2]
I was nine and I thought that door was about me
Like I wasn't quite enough to keep you in the room
Now I work like you worked and I know what that quiet is
It's not a man leaving, it's a man coming through

[Build 2]

[Chorus 2]
I'm driving out Sunday with two cups and time to kill
I'll hold the ladder steady while you climb it too
You don't have to be strong for anybody up here
Ten minutes of sky, and I'll climb up with you

[Drop 2]

[Breakdown]
All those years I called it leaving
And you were only getting quiet enough to come home
I'm standing where you stood in your work boots
Ten minutes of sky, I know now

[Final Build]

[Final Drop]

[Outro]
Rust on my hands, the light going gold
Ten minutes of sky, I'm climbing up with you
