Summit

Before it gets dark
And lights are turned down
And dreams put off to another day
In merciless quiet
Revealing I have
Forever and completely lost my way

I down a last drink
And drown for some hours
How madly I'm challenged by unrest
Tomorrow I'll leave
To build a new mansion
Way up on the towering crest

Find me walking over
Trap doors that swallow every plan
I'll be waiting in the death zone
Never waste a thought on me again (x2)

The summit pokes out
Of meaningless clouds
Each step takes me higher and higher
I know I can reach
The impossible goal
The vanishing point of desire

Oh high is the price
For what keeps me going
And dearly I'll pay for my sin
Cold winds from the north
From a fathomless source
Carry the new ice age in

Find me walking over
Trap doors that swallow every plan
I'll be waiting in the death zone
Never waste a thought on me again (x2)

As long as you're not being wild
Your life is in good hands
As long as you're not going too far
Your life is in good hands (x2)

Find me walking over
Trap doors that swallow every plan
I'll be waiting in the death zone
Never waste a thought on me again (x2)
