chaos enigma – atop the highest mountain a man stands lonely lyrics
i stand alone
on nature’s throne
companions gone
i have outgrown
no need for others/i am at the peak
of human existence/above all the meek
companions i once had/above all the rest
disciples i don’t need/their flaws to infest
my mind is its clearest/in solitude
mine eagle and serpent/i am of their brood
in nature i thrive/outside of the herd
a bear amongst bears/a bird amongst birds
i stand alone
on nature’s throne
companions gone
i have outgrown
echoes i hear/within myself
of that old saint/from whom i withdrew
wisdom or folly/in solitude
i am all alone/is this path true?
doubting arises/within my mind
the choice to abandon/all humankind
can i find answers/wholly within?
other perspectives
lost
i stand alone
on nature’s throne
companions gone
i have outgrown
atop this great mountain i stand all alone
awaiting the lightning that will guide me on
higher than man i believe i’ve become
but is this the answer? is this my home?
i stand alone
on nature’s throne
companions gone
i have outgrown
i’ve k!lled all my pity, i’ve k!lled all my shame
abandoned the values from whence virtue came
virtue they say, but it was all a lie
but are my own values an excess of pride?
atop the highest mountain
i stand alone
i have forged new values
far from my home
but in my own ego
have i lost my way?
clung to new absolutes
when the truth is more grey?
