I once stood at the top of the mountain
Within the reach of the skies
Closer to the heavens than I have ever been before
Stood taller than the trees below
Understood more about the world I set foot on
The grass looked greener
The people looked nicer
The city was smaller
I stood up here before and everything was better
I now stand on the top of the mountain
Where the skies were within my reach
Where the heavens was closer than I could ever think
Where the world around me can be seen entirely
I now stand at the top of the mountain
And I can see the place the world has become
And this place was better when it was before.
