The Mountains I summit, Jeez
The rise is alarming, please
The water that’s raining down
Makes it harder to climb it, In
The Forest with all the trees
I make it out on my knees
Begging for refreshment
I take a sip out of the streams
I’m climbing until I peak
The Austrian Hut, I think
It’s getting colder, the clink
Of boots on Ice, they don’t sink
Tread carefully on these
The terrain is filled with slip
ups and mishaps, one mistake
Rest in eternal sleep
The breeze is blowing, the brink
Of the dead of night, but the glint
above’s a blanket of sirens
how the stars they blink
Till the light pierces the horizon
and shines against the snow
The story just beginning
To see how far I can go
