peter hammill – the descent lyrics
only yesterday you were pegging out your tent
you stood pitch+perfect at the centre of the floe;
although n0body could know quite where you went
we were sure you were intent on the descent
at the border post all the documents were stamped
you had clear passage to go onwards to the peak
knowing conditions on the journey would be cramped
bit by bit jaw muscles tensed up as they champed…
so the moment passed while you were sitting on the fence
become light+headed in the thinning of the air
although you’d carefully prepared for such events
for all you care about it, here’s ten pence
to make a call, forever henceforth
you’ll be saying how your back was bent in the descent
starved of oxygen, something had thrown you off the scent
molecular particles are scattered in the wind
although you sensed something beginning, in the end
for all the chances given, heaven+sent
you’d trade them all to pay the rent
and now you no longer remember what they meant in the descent
only yesterday you were pegging out
your tent stood abandoned where you left it
in your attempt at the descent
