I still remember the days
When we were
Happy with clichés
And I was fool enough
To think I was
Worth more than I create
I grew to learn the fragile art
Of smiling while I fall apart
And if all the world’s a stage
Then day by day
Yes, I will play the part
But what happens when an unstoppable force
And an immovable object meet?
So tell me, do you hear the call of the mountain?
Hear them sing to you
My blood is running gold
And my heart's set a-pounding
Where there’s adventure, I’ll pursue
I’ll grab my sword and shield
Got my paper and pen
‘Cause when I’m on the battlefield
I feel like I can feel again
Another day, ano’er idea
“Another unrealistic fever dream?”
You say — “It’s not enough!”
(I’d call your bluff
But then we’d both be lying
So I’ll keep trying)
I’ll climb the tallest, highest elm tree
When life denies me victory
Imagination grants
Control; the chance
To guarantee
I am an unstoppable force
The oceans tremble when I speak
So tell me, do you feel the soul of the mountain?
They cannot be subdued
My blood is running cold
But my heart’s still a-pounding
Where there’s adventure, I’ll pursue
I’ll grab my sword and shield
Got my paper and pen
‘Cause when I’m on the battlefield
I feel like I can feel again
Oo
Feel again
Rage, rage against the dying of the light
I’ll let you be my dragon if you’ll let me be your knight
And no, it isn’t easy, but I know that if we try
We’ll beat the odds and win the friggin’ lottery of life!
‘Cause standing out can feel outstanding sometimes
So I dream big and I’ll keep biggering and biggering ‘til I’ve
Fin’lly found something to keep this fire alive
And maybe then I could stop thinking we’d be better off if I just—
So tell me, do you know the tale of the mountain?
...I swear it’s true
All that glitters isn’t gold
Hear alarm bells are sounding
Though every
