We Climbed the Mountain

© 2019 Samurai, all rights reserved. "We Climbed the Mountain"  We climbed the mountain with heavy hearts,

The story gone tragic in all the wrong parts.

Tears filled our eyes,

And shadows filled our skies,

As we relived with each step our lows and our highs.



To our grief, the angels were blind,

And the demons were all we could find.

Abandoned we were by the guiding light,

And deep inside us, we lost all the fight

That we had, and it vanished into the night.



We climbed the mountain with sorrowful cries,

<p style="text-align:center;">Silent cries, like hope itself when it dies.

<p style="text-align:center;">Rocks tumbled down,

<p style="text-align:center;">And the world began to drown

<p style="text-align:center;">In pain as dark as the Grim Reaper’s gown.

<p style="text-align:center;">

<p style="text-align:center;">To our loss, the angels were deaf,

<p style="text-align:center;">And the demons were all we had left.

<p style="text-align:center;">Deserted we were by the knowing fire,

<p style="text-align:center;">And the darkness lifted us ever higher

<p style="text-align:center;">Into a sky of nothing, empty of desire.

<p style="text-align:center;">

<p style="text-align:center;">We climbed the mountain with haunting calls,

<p style="text-align:center;">Calls of the lost, those who wander the halls

<p style="text-align:center;">Of time and space, never finding peace or rest.

<p style="text-align:center;">And maybe losing them was for the best;

<p style="text-align:center;">Goodbye, sweet sunset dying in the west.

<p style="text-align:center;">

<p style="text-align:center;">We climbed the mountain, only to fall.
