Monarch of the Mountain

They weren't the keepers

No secret fire there

Still I auditioned

A lifetime defined, to remind: the divine

Whenever your heart says, the waitress...

Go now, write it down

(Be)cause I've seen the end and it comes too soon

We fall apart

And then we're gone

We wait our turn

We never learn

I've been to the mountain

Inflated my purpose here

I've been the villain

I am The Dance that Defies Doom

But I've said the wrong thing so many times

That I'm counting my cringes

Instead of sheep

When I try to sleep

We fall apart

And then we're gone

We wait our turn

We never learn

I'll be smarter, kinder next time

We'll catch it early next time

The only way to leave is through
