and the birds eat your insides 
clutching the mountainside 
it's where the day takes you 
did you think you'd try to climb the face 
there's longing and it breaks you 
synthetic lungs filling up with concrete 
didn't miss a breath when you climbed so high 
could you see your wife and child 
and where you ready to die 
a million miles away 
would you throw it all away to climb back down 
simples dreams and the mainstream 
it's where the day takes you 
simple dreams and the mainstream 
but you chose to die 
a million miles from home
