Verse 1
As I stand now right before this mountain
Ready or not, there is no backing out
Not looking up I’ve learned to question what I see
Step by step, breath in breath out’s the key
My thoughts at war in my mind
I have become so unkind…. To me
Verse 2
I got the first bit of the way behind me
Fully committed, there is no backing out
I look around, it feels I’ll never catch up to the rest
Their grass is greener and I’m never just as blessed
A war is raging inside
The waves are forming a tide
Chorus
Sometimes it’s easy sometimes it’s not at all
Sometimes I run ahead and sometimes I fall
Each step will bring me closer to the end, but will it be
The end of everything i knew
Or maybe something new
Verse 3
I can see the top, I’m coming closer
But every step reveals another way
And every way will end up being bad or unique
But only one way takes you to the peak
No cutting corners around
The only way is the narrow road you found
Chorus
Bridge
The mountains are meant to
Reveal the heart inside
And as you ascend to
The top of one you’ll find
It’s just part of a whole range
Majestical indeed
And after every climb you’ll change
However much you bleed
And oh that heart –
Who’s taking it apart
And oh that heart –
Who’s making it restart?
