1,000 Word Hymn

You were alive
Until your ghost was set aside
And now it’s killing you inside
The same things that made you feel alright
I hear it calling
Call out a warning
You chose to be like this
Don’t make me feel like this
I will not carry you on my shoulders
It’s you against the world
So let your fist unfurl
Cause you’re only getting older
It takes a mountain climb
To reach the top
And conquer all your fears
But I will take all of mine
And chase them away
I’ve waited all these years
I was so alive
Until you sucked the life right out of me
And now it’s thriving inside
The same things that made me feel alive
I hear your calling
Don’t say you’re sorry
And I won’t take you down
You’ll do it to yourself
And I will step around your wreckage
Strong like gravity
Holding onto me
But never keeping my feet planted
It takes a mountain climb
To reach the top
And conquer all your fears
But I will take all of mine
And chase them away
I’ve waited all these years
You can come with me, run with me
And leave it all behind
You’re too blind to see
You just need to breathe
So you can feel alive
It takes a mountain climb
To reach the top
And conquer all your fears
But I will take all of mine
And chase them away
I’ve waited all these years
It takes a mountain climb
It takes a mountain climb
It takes a mountain climb
It takes a mountain climb
Come with me, run with me
And leave it all behind
