The Condor Path

High stone. Cold air.
Long climb. Sharp glare.
I see the path. Cutting the sky.
Open summit. Hard and high.

Climb the stone. Find the way.
Sun on summit. End of day.
No more waiting. No more wall.
Watch the shadow. Start to fall.

Thin air. Steep ground.
Wind cuts. Pure sound.
Mind clear. Step light.
Hold the line. Through the night.

Strong wind. Bright fire.
Catch the spark. Higher wire.
We are climbing. Through the cold.
This is where. I break the hold.

Climb the stone. Find the way.
Sun on summit. End of day.
No more waiting. No more wall.
Watch the shadow. Start to fall.
