Altitude Sickness

I find myself, again with empty hands and an empty heart
It's always there
Even if I close my eyes, it lives in my mind

Where do I put my trust when it seems this battle has no end?
If these walls could speak they'd tell me fear isn't real
One of many sentiments I can't feel

The path is blocked
By mountains as far as eyes can see
Take farewell of how it used to be
The path is blocked
Trying to find your place along the climb
Reach the summit above the clouds

I persist. Knowing I'm breathing but there's no air
High above burns identity, it breathes without oxygen

All it takes is to step outside, another page for every step I take
But it's written in a language that I can't read
That I don't understand
That I don't understand

The path is blocked
By mountains as far as eyes can see
Take farewell of how it used to be
The path is blocked
Trying to find your place along the climb
Reach the summit above the clouds

I persist. Knowing I'm breathing but there's no air
High above burns identity, it breathes without oxygen

I'll put my trust in myself
I'll put my trust in myself
