Thursday - "As He Climbed The Dark Mountain"

Watched him walk away (watched him walk away)
Climb the endless shadow side
Watched him holding on
(Watched him holding on) (watched him walk away)
It was a thousand years, a thousand miles
A thousand dreams, a thousand minutes
With no goodbye

Disappear from me
(A thousand miles, a thousand dreams, a thousand minutes)
Hold on!
As he climbed the highest peak of the dark mountain

Let the mountain sleep
In the past with all our bad dreams

Was it a metaphor for all the subtle ways that we've grown apart?
Was it mortality?

Climbing and plunged
Right off of the edge of his life!
Into the hands of a loving God
Or reaching forward to get torn apart
With his hands in the air
Was he laughing and dancing
Or only just trying to wave "Goodbye"!

Say a prayer for me (hold on!)
As he climbed the highest peak of the dark mountain
Let the mountain fall
Struck me down until I can't go on

Let go!
Let me fall down!
Onto the ground!

Do we go on alone?

It felt like a thousand years
It was a thousand miles away

It was a thousand miles away
