I can attest, trying to save the world is a hard mountain to scale
This task we've set up for ourselves seems destined to fail
Hands are so easily susceptible to damage and every inside each
and every wound festers hopelessness

The weight we carry whispers words of apathy
Sometimes it's just so tempting to let fingers slip away

And fall right into the illusions that we sought to climb above

All alone, stranded on this mountainside
Exhaustion takes a heavy toll inside
Arms are so prone to flights of fatigue
Sometimes just holding on is in-itself challenging

All the dirt collects in the wounds leaving me consumed
Sometimes just one thought away from relinquishing control

To fall right into the illusions that we sought to climb above
I call out to you in hopes of finding anew my passion and love

Through screams of defiance, I seek the strength to soar
Bring myself one step closer so that I may breathe in pure air
