Everest (One More Step)

Cold air burning in my lungs Morning shadows hide the sun Every stone beneath my feet Asks me why I still believe

Every heartbeat feels so loud No one here to pull me out Only silence knows my name Only I can face this pain

It's easy to turn back It's easy to let it go But something deep inside you whispers One more step

One more step When your strength is almost gone One more step When your courage can't hold on Every mountain seems too high Every dream too far to reach But the road belongs to those Who find one more step

The wind grows colder every mile The weight grows heavier with time The finish isn't in my sight Only one more chance to fight

Every scar becomes a guide Every fear I leave behind I don't need to see the end Just enough to climb again

The summit wasn't where I won I won the moment I refused to quit Everybody has an Everest Some are built from broken dreams Some are built from hope The next step Is all that matters

One more step That's how mountains disappear One more step That's how doubt gives way to faith Everest Was never just a place It lives inside us all Waiting For one more step
