I've watched him walk away (watched him walk away)
to climb the endless shadow side.
I've watched him holding on (watched him holding on, watched him walk away).
It was a thousand years, a thousand miles,
a thousand dreams, a thousand endings with no goodbyes.
He disappeared from me (a thousand miles, a thousand dreams, a thousand minutes, hold on!)
as he climbed the highest peak of the dark mountain.
Let the mountain sleep in the past with all our bad dreams.
Was it a metaphor
for all the subtle ways that we'd grow apart?
Was it mortality
climbing him blind right off the edge of his life?
Into the hands of a loving god,
or the raging void where we get torn apart?
With his hands in the air,
was he laughing and dancing
or only just trying to wave goodbye?
Did he say a prayer for me (Hold on!)
as he climbed the highest peak of the dark mountain?
Let the mountain fall.
Strike me down until I can’t go on.
Right now, let me fall down
under the ground.
Do we go on alone?
It felt like a thousand years
It was a thousand miles away.
It was a thousand miles away.
