Mountain

You speak your love,
you turn, are gone.
What kind of love
you thinking of?

Can you tell me how this mountain got so high?

Moments worth
the price of myths,
lifting from our fingertips,
reaching for the next hand hold on the wall.

How'd this mountain get so high?
How'd this mountain get so high?
Can someone tell me how this mountain got so high?

Step by step
we take on weight.
The trick is now
to separate,
secure the good,
leave the rot behind.

How'd this mountain get so high?
How'd this mountain get so high?
Can someone tell me how this mountain got so high?

No need for answers,
but give them choice,
a simple place
to hear their voice.

Can someone tell me how this mountain got so high?

How'd this mountain get so high?
How'd this mountain get so high?
Can someone tell me how this mountain got so high?
