Downhill From Here

Downhill From Here
No going back--the flames have burned the forest
Where I’ve come from, and I must keep going
It’s all downhill from here
Careening into the dark with no idea

Where I’ve come from, and I must keep going
To say, to do, to hide, to run, to live
Careening into the dark with no idea
All I know is that there is nothing

To say, to do, to hide, to run from
I look out from atop the mountain
All I know is that there is nothing
Behind me; I take the leap

I look out from atop the mountain
No going back--the flames have burned the forest
Behind me; I take the leap

It’s all downhill from here
