Lyrics:
Sometimes I Consider My PaceI'm Reminded Of A Train Gathering SpeedFor The Climb To The PassIn Whose Shadow It Already LiesA Small Metal Dragon ApproachingThe Ever-Present Ascending RiseTo The Seventh MountainReeling And Snaking And LeapingIt Seems Like It Wants To Come LooseFrom Its Path Cast In IronBut She Can't Slow Down NowAs The Earth Has Presented A New Crest To ReachWithout Barely A RestFrom The Last OneAnd You Wonder Just What Lies BeyondThough You've Been There BeforeAnd Forget About The Effort And The StrainAlways AscendingEach Yard Adds A MileTo The Never-ending Pull Of The Steepening GradeThat's Before YouA Valley, A Forest, A Desert, A StreamWith An Oversized BridgeFor The Trickle There BeneathYou Remember The TorrentIt Turned To Last SpringFrom The Snows Melting FastAnd The River It BecameIn The SummerPerhaps It Is RuinedFrom A Fire That Has Scorched ItSo Badly That Nothing Will Grow Without RainTo Wash Away The Blackened SoilNow Useless Till Called Upon AgainIn A Future As Twisted And Far AwayAs The Next Range Of MountainsSo Take It As Far As You SeeAnd BeyondWith Eyes You Don't Use EnoughGather Up StrengthAs Thoroughfare GapWill Await You ForeverYou're Seeking To Get ThereFor Even BeforeIt's No MatterNo DistanceIt's The Ride
