Go it Alone

Take me with you

To the mountains

I want to go there

No obligations

Just sounds of walking

Can't help from breathing

To feel exhausted

My mind and body ache from holding still

And I've got time to kill

I wanna know if I break an ankle

Would you help me finish

Would you hold me higher

Or is there something I'm not seeing, saying, sensing hearing

My thoughts aren't clearing

Tell me what I'm not

I thread from thought to though

Ooooh I'll just let go

I'll go it alone

Just me and my phone

You, you know what's good

We'll link when we should

I understood

And now I'm marching through valleys

Winding up peaks and snowdrifts

Down slimy boardwalks

I feel the wind blow

I hear an eagle

I'll make it home slow

Walking steady keeps the rhythm dear

It will take me here

To where it's peaceful

To where it's steady

To where I'm stronger, to where I'm ready

I can't escape it, just learn to live with, a broken heart and a mind that's turning

I can make that work

We've all done that before

Ah, a mountaintop's the best place for perspective dear

Hours after walking you no longer fear

Any thought that crosses through a tangled mind
