Top Of The World
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Break the camp the plan is done
The mountain waits for you to come
Snow and ice the granite rock
One mistake and you will drop
The summit never conquered yet
Soon you'll face your final test
No oxygen is taken there
You only breathe the thinning air
This is the land where the earth meets the sky
Standing on top of the world
You're standing on top of the world
Inch by inch you near a climb
Up towards the death zone line
Your body claws for every breath
Razor sharp across your chest
Step by step each painful minute
Through the clouds towards the summit
Standing there in majesty
The highest place above the sea
This is the land where the earth meets the sky
Standing on top of the world
You're standing on top of the world
Make no mistake descent is slow
Death awaits you far below
Check the rope is good and strong
Take your time don't get it wrong
To reach the peak is what you yearn
But many go and don't return
Your body screams from the lack of rest
But no one hears on Everest
This is the land where the earth meets the sky
Standing on top of the world
You're standing on top of the world
Standing on top of the world
You're standing on top of the world
