Mount Normal Lyrics

I propose to climb Mount Normal

My expidition needs supply

And fortune smiles upon the fool

Who gives at least a try

And in the quest to take Mount Normal

I've no Sherpa for a guide

It's the kind of trek that feels its way

As I sacrifice my pride

And deign to dare to risk rejection

From what I don't know how to fake

So much that I would give to this

And I don't know what to take

And I am scaling up Mount Normal

And I get higher every day

And I dream to be somebody else

And every night I pray

That I will stand atop Mount Normal

Proudly survey the land and sea

And have happy endings if I grasp

And cling to normalcy

Well I am halfway up Mount Normal

From here at least it looks that way

Because I notice in the newer eyes

A fear I lack today

And it occurred to me this summit

Is something everybody seeks

We're so aware the precipice

While we dream about the peaks

And I am scaling up Mount Normal

And I get higher every day

And I dream to be somebody else

And every night I pray

That I will stand atop Mount Normal

Proudly survey the land and sea

And have happy endings if I grasp

And cling to normalcy

And I'll chip at icy obstacles

Until this mountain is secure

Then I will realize and find my way

At least I'm reasonably sure

When I an high atop Mount Normal

I'll finally forgive the past

And feel at once that I belonged

To normalcy at last

And I'm high atop Mount Normal

And I get higher every day

And I dream to be somebody else

And every night I pray

That I will stand atop Mount Normal

Proudly survey the land and sea

And have happy endings if I grasp

And cling to normalcy

And we are scaling up Mount Normal

And we get higher every day

And we dream to be somebody else

And every night we pray

Someday we'll stand atop Mount Normal

Proudly survey the land and sea

And have happy endings if we grasp

And cling to normalcy
