Escape

I’m on a journey

Through the desert

In the distance I can see a mountain

So high too steep for these shoes

Too dangerous I need a rope to

Keep me tethered to keep me safe

 

What did you see up there?

Was it like a ghost?

Could you make out what it was?

I know you saw something move

What did you see up there?

I know it’s so far up

I think you saw it move

And it triggered something in your mind

 

I’m on a journey

Once in a lifetime I guess

Where the mountain never diminishes

It seems to grow with every step I take

These shoes are not made for climbing

These shoes are made for earth’s bed

 

What did you see up there?

Was it like a ghost?

Could you make out what it was?

I know you saw something move

What did you see up there?

I know it’s so far up

I think you saw it move

And it triggered something in your mind

 

Is this my escape?
