Lyrics

I just climbed the highest mountain
I have ever climbed before
From the peak I looked and shouted
To my echo down below
No, it's not as high as you've climbed
There are higher mountains, yes
But this joy right now that I have
At this moment is the best
And I ask myself
Once the moment passes
'cause I just can't tell
Did it really happen?
Did something come from nothing?
Yeah, something came from nothing
And if it's back to nothing
It's back where it had begun
All these pathways I am walking
Where I'm headed, where I've gone
All these songs and words I'm talking
Assume that life after goes on
It's not just me, it's all who've lived here
And we all ask what remains
If the darkness at which we stare
Shows us to its grave domain?
And I ask myself
Once the moment passes
'cause I just can't tell
Did it really happen?
Did something come from nothing?
Yeah, something came from nothing
And if it's back to nothing
It's back where it once began
If that darkness I see is good
Not the evil I suppose
Does that make it much less dreadful
When I ponder in repose?
So I search through what I'm thinking
Seeking thoughts to make things right
Like a tree that I am kicking
Make the birds inside take flight
And I ask myself
Once the moment passes
'cause I just can't tell
Did it ever really happen?
Did something come from nothing?
Yeah, something came from nothing
And if it's back to nothing
It's at where it had begun
Does it matter in the long run
If I kick the tree just right
After all, the birds, the words sung
Are regardless taking flight
And just 'cause we had connection
And learned we don't get along
Doesn't mean I'm mad I met'cha
Or I want your mem'ry gone
And I ask myself
Once the moment passes
'cause I just can't tell
Did it ever really happen?
Did something come from nothing?
Yeah, something came from nothing
And if it's back to nothing
It's at where it had begun
And if something came from nothing
Just 'cause now it is a was
Should I give up on a something
Manifesting from this love?
And I ask myself
Once the moment passes
'cause I just can't tell
Did it ever really happen?
Did something come from nothing?
Yeah, something came from nothing
And if it's back to nothing
It's back where it had begun
