| Avalanche Use me as your sturdy foothold. Step on me to gain your ground. Regain your footing on my pride And climb my spine to reach your goal. Because you have a weight to bare, You have a burden you can not share. A mole hill mountain you must climb. A tedious quest you must complete. Push your boulder up the fucking hill, Watch it fall down the other side. Run down the lonesome valley to fetch it back And walk all over me again. Try as you might it all comes down. Try as you might, life�s an avalanche. Gather your hopes on a mountainside And watch them tumble down again. I am not your mountain guide, I am not your stepping stone. I won�t let you walk on me, I won�t help you up the hill. Push your boulder up the fucking hill And chase it down the other side. Watch it crush you in its path And dash itself on the rocks below. Try as you might this ground gives way. Try as you might your hopes will fall. Why do you pile hope so high? Why do you build on faulty ground? When the ground below you gives, That�s when the boulders tumble down. I can not be with you now, Your avalanche may bury me as well. Haul your rocks back up the hill And place them on the faulty edge, And when your shit comes crashing down, I�ll no longer be beneath your feet. |
