When I'm caught in a net    And I haven't a clue   All I've got to do is climb the ladder to you   Climb the ladder      When there are ghosts in my coat   And everything is askew   All I've got to do is climb the ladder to you   Climb the ladder to you      All of these faces are crowding around me   With mouths open wide to devour   But they have no impact, no, I do not cower   Knowing I'm safe in your tower      When my pencil tip's broken    And my brain is too   All I've got to do is climb the ladder to you   Climb the ladder      When I feel like an oar    In a sunken canoe    All I've got to do is climb the ladder to you   Climb the ladder to you      All of these faces are crowding around me   Like grey paint caked on a flower   But they have no impact, no value, no power   Knowing I'm safe in your tower
