Caldera - The Mountain Climber

The climb lacerates my will to stand
On infected ground, I plant my urge to dance
Condescending the fear and the chance ahead
To minimize the life that I can't defend

Sabotage my optimism
For righteous abandon of my past convictions

Follow
The shallows
The path winding endless, I cannot see

Swallow
The failure
And my pride with each step I choose to breach

A new day
A new hell
A new way of self torture I can claim

Keep moving
Or give up the freedom and go home again

The hills and rolling flames
Peaking violent expressions of love insane
I can't repent the sins I had made

Tears streaming
Thoughts racing in my mind
Of a world I left
Thoughts racing in my mind

Follow
The shallows
The path winding endless I cannot see

Swallow
The failure
And my pride with each step I choose to breach

A new day
A new hell
A new way of self torture I can claim

Keep moving
Or give up the freedom and go home again, again

The aching
The burning
The resurrection of body and mind

The crawling
The spinning
Surviving a nightmare I choose for mine
