[Intro]
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah

[Verse 1]
It’s the shame, it’s the pain, something I can’t explain
It’s a noise, it’s a voice and it screams in my brain
It’s a curse and it hurts, but I just keep going
I lean into the storm, it’s the way I was born
‘Cause my fear is a flame and it can’t be ignored
Keeping faith that is blind through the tears in my eyes
But I just keep going
[Chorus]
I climb Everest
Knowing it’s life or death
Oh and my survival is suicidal
This vicious cycle
Knowing I won’t ever rest
Until my dying breath
‘Til I have nothing left
Everest

[Verse 2]
It’s the cure, it’s a poison, I don’t have a choice in
The silent defiance that I find my voice in
‘Cause I have decided to just keep going
It’s the rush, it’s the feeling that keeps me believing
That I have the strength when I don’t have a reason
To fight is my vice when I don’t have the right
To just keep going

[Pre-Chorus]
I’m counting bodies on the way
Knowing any one could take my place
Knowing I could give my life for something
And it might all be for nothing

[Chorus]
I climb Everest
Knowing it’s life or death
Oh and my survival is suicidal
This vicious cycle
Knowing I won’t ever rest
Until my dying breath
‘Til I have nothing left
Oh, Everest

[Bridge]
All my life I’ve had to fight and
Don’t know why I just keep going
There’s a light and I just might
Get that high if I just keep going
All my life I’ve had to fight and
Don’t know why I just keep going
There’s a light and I just might
Get that high if I keep climbing

[Chorus]
Everest
Knowing it’s life or death
Oh and my survival is suicidal
This vicious cycle
Knowing I won’t ever rest
Until my dying breath
‘Til I have nothing left
Oh, Everest

[Outro]
I’ll die with no regrets
Everest
Ah
