One last time
To climb that mountain
To feel the high
Invade his blood
As he set out
His need was focused
Destination
Consuming rush
~~~*Chorus*~~~
He was flying down that mountain
And the wolves were close behind
His heart bursting with the cold dread
He would not escape this time
He smelled their hot breath on him
He could sense their savage thirst
He saw the shadows closing in
Heard the growls that were dispersed
Every sense was heightened
From the blissful rise
But the descent...
Was the last time
~~*~~
One last time
He climbed that mountain
He felt the high
Invade his blood
As he ran down
The beasts transcended
He'd craved the rush
Oh, far too much
~~~*Lyrical Bridge*~~~
He prayed for the baying of the hounds
To come and save him
He cursed himself for flirting so with death
Just as the cold slope fell
To the call of total darkness
And the wolves overcame him, his last breath...
Clarified
One last time
~~~*Chorus*~~~
He was flying down that mountain
And the wolves were close behind
His heart bursting with the cold dread
He would not escape this time
He smelled their hot breath on him
He could sense their savage thirst
He saw the shadows closing in
Heard the growls that were dispersed
Every sense was heightened
From the blissful rise
But the descent...
Was the last time
