Fall of George Mallory

And the birds eat your insides
Clutching the mountain side
(It's where the day takes you)
Did you think you would try to climb the face?
There's longing and it breaks you
(Synthetic lies)
You're filling up with concrete

Didn't miss a breath
When you climbed so high
Did you see your wife and child
And where you ready to die
A million miles away, would you throw it all away?

Simple dreams in the mainstream
Is where the day takes you
Simple dreams in the mainstream
But you just died a million miles from home
