lyrics

V1
Lost in a dark wood
In the middle of my days
Trying to climb the mountain
Lame feet won’t follow my gaze

Three wild beasts
Suddenly closing in
Hope flew from trembling heart
This is where it ends

Chorus
“You wish to climb the mountain
And stand on highest ground.
There’s only one way forward:
The way up is the way down.”

“If you want to go to heaven
You must take the path through hell.
Then climb the mount of cleansing,
If in Paradise you’ll dwell.”

Keep your mind in hell and despair not

V2
All at once a stranger
Came Before me to stand
“Have pity, whatever you may be,
Whether shade or living man.”

A living voice spoke to me
though his body was dead
his words were like fire
and this is what he said
