Lyrics

I climbed the tallest mountain
the horizon let me see.
my intention upon leaving
was to find out what I'd be.

I'd questions without answers,
answers without cause.
I knew that there'd be knowledge gained and inhibitions lost.

---

I began to ask my questions
as I slowly reached the peak,
Then I listened for my answers
though I still had yet to speak.

I heard the trees were whispering,
but only to themselves,
I heard the wind let out a roar,
but it's meaning was withheld.

---

Then a gust of wind came passing,
and something brushed my cheek,
I looked first down to find a feather,
then up, an eagle's beak.

As it opened I'd my answer,
though again it did not speak,
but I could see it's eyes and
realized the answer I did seek.

---

“In your ascent atop this mountain,
To the truth you yourself led.
And so do lead on, lead on
As I have said.”

---

So I took the eagle's feather,
A memento of my climb
To remind me of the life I've led
and the one I've left behind,
To remind me of the life I've led
and the one I've yet to find,
