On the ground, it's easy to stay still
To let life go reality's not here
It's all shadow alone and frozen cold
A thousand miles up, a thousand more to go
I fill in the blanks where words come short
Amazed they come at all
Painfully aware my flesh is weak
Perhaps I can go on
For reasons I refuse, refuse to understand
Why must I go on?
I must go on!
No comfort here or anywhere
Yet my heart still pumps my blood
My Spirit knows there's something more
I feel there's so much more!
Terror grips my mind and heart
And though my soul is pale
I feel it burning deep within
The light that tells all tales
