scaling the mountain
i have giving up my pride
and i'm clinging to disrupt
the edge of rose thorns in my side
it's fable contradiction
it's bitter sweet and blind
and i'm balancing the mountain of compromise

i went over the hill to be with you
i went over the hill
i am over the hill to be with you
am i holding onto lies or holding onto life?

staying in position objectivity provides
'cause it's hard to ignore losing
when you're winning all the time
and the weight of it's too heavy
the ceiling far too low
this commitment is restraining
and i can't cope

i went over the hill
over the hill
i am over the hill to be with you
am i holding onto life or holding onto lies?

in retrospective your absence,
my disposition's gone.
as i close my eyes to searching,
treasuring what i once loved.
i let go of the noose and breath again
i am falling landing and landed afoot
