Mountains
Climbing Life's Peaks: Hayden Elizabeth's Journey Through Mountains
Lyrics
Peaceful quiet, no one's there
Describing a serene, empty space with no one around
Breathing in the frozen air
Inhaling cold, icy air
I still see your mountains
The singer still perceives your challenges or obstacles ('mountains')
I am stuck in the middle of two worlds
Feeling caught between two contrasting worlds
To get back to mine I have to climb
To return to their own world, they must overcome challenges similar to climbing mountains
Mountains
Repetition emphasizing the theme of 'mountains' as obstacles or challenges
Mountains
So tell me when you're at the top looking below
Questioning whether, from a higher vantage point, one reflects on the growth and change below
Do you think about the way things grow
Reflecting on how things evolve, either coming closer or drifting apart
Closer together, further apart
Metaphorically, pondering decisions until they become an artistic expression
Picking petals 'til it turns to art
Believing they understood right from wrong, but faced with uncertainty
I thought I knew better
I thought I knew wrong from right
-I thought I knew better
-But I've got mountains to climb
Feeling the weight of significant challenges to overcome
I've got mountains to climb
Sun is setting, evening breaks
Describing the setting sun and the approach of a fading season
All around me summer fades
Surrounded by the transition from summer to another season
Right behind the mountains
The challenges are just behind what's immediately visible
They say that's where life begins
People claim that life's true essence starts beyond these obstacles
But I'll never know until I make it to the
Uncertainty about life's essence until the obstacles are conquered
Mountains
Mountains
-So tell me when you're at the top looking below
-Do you think about the way things grow
-Closer together, further apart
-Picking petals 'til it turns to art
-I thought I knew better
-I thought I knew wrong from right
-I thought I knew better
-But I've got mountains to climb
-I've got mountains to climb
-Take a minute breathe
Encouragement to pause and regain composure
You can't stop 'cause you made it this far
Acknowledging the progress made and urging to continue
Made it this far
Take a minute breathe
-You can't stop 'cause you made it this far
-Made it this far
-Take a minute breathe
-You can't stop 'cause you made it this far
-Made it this far
-Take a minute breathe
-You can't stop 'cause you made it this far
-Made it this far
-So tell me when you're at the top looking below
-Do you think about the way things grow
-Closer together, further apart
-Picking petals 'til it turns to art
-I thought I knew better
-I thought I knew wrong from right
-I thought I knew better
-I thought I knew wrong from right
-I thought I knew better
-I thought I knew wrong from right
-But I've got mountains to climb
Reiteration of facing significant challenges ahead
Yeah I've got mountains to climb
