Paradise is a mountain
A mountain so hard to clim
Summit's thin air will disarm you
And the view will tell a lie
Cold heart crowns fly down beside you
In a state of frenzy
To pick apart all my thoughts and memories
To disembowel reality

Some day the sun can shine and winter's pain can melt away
But I can see it's much too long from now 'til then
What's a matter with the ocean
Thirsty for apologies
Murky with so much deception
Couldn't see the hand in front of me
Swim beside me and my vision
Of a future paradise
When the mountain tops will bow down
Right before your very eyes

Some day the sun can shine and winter's pain can melt away
Please promise no more from now 'til then
From now 'til then
From now 'til then
They say they see the sunrise coming down the way
They say they see tomorrow but do they see today
I've asked myself a thousand times have we run this race before
I need for you to realize I really need some more
Some one give me something I can't ignore
