Mammoth

I sweat it out on the first ascent 

June lake passing to the left of us 

Eyes down better watch my step 

I need to know how to trust myself 

Can you walk me through this?

I was bitching bout your worn-out tent

Silver moon shining on our skin 

How did you see me through the bitterness 

You held me tight when I needed it 

Can you hold me through this? 

Can you hold me through this?

I can see it all I close my eyes 

It’s awful quiet 

Closer to andromeda 

I hear my thoughts they’re coming on 

And I start to fall getting dizzy from 

The weight of it all

You walk me through this

Felt my heartbeat in my fingertips 

My body telling me that I should quit 

I’ve never been the type for giving in

But is it living if it’s gotta feel like this?

Can you walk me through this?

I let it out on the final stretch 

And walked straight out to the river’s edge 

When the waters this cold you gotta plunge right in 

I close my eyes, you count down from 10 

Can you talk me through this?

Can you walk me through?

Can you get me through?
