On Too High to Die

Coming down from the mountain

I have seen the high and mighty

I will go again someday

But for now I'm coming down

Coming down from the mountain

I have seen the lofty glory

I will go again someday

But for now I'm coming down

I have seen the information

On the lighter side of dumbness

I have heard the new statistics

And the stomping on the ground

Picking slowly up the rockslide

One thing always seems apparent

If the climb becomes too much

I can always turn around

Waking up from my slumber

To misunderstand another

Though they call it terra firma

It dissolves beneath my feet

Looking through a pile of garbage

For some worthless piece of paper

That's been hidden there for me

To give meaning to my day

I have seen the information

On the lighter side of dumbness

I have heard the new statistics

And the stomping on the ground

Picking slowly up the rockslide

One thing always seems apparent

If the climb becomes too much

I can always turn around

Going down to the desert

To the dirty filthy desert

I'll be crawling through the sand

For at least a couple days

Going down to the desert

Ther are things there worth avoiding

And it always makes me cross

When those things get in my way

I have seen the information

On the lighter side of dumbness

I have heard the new statistics

And the stomping on the ground

Picking slowly up the rockslide

One thing always seems apparent

If the climb becomes too much

I can always turn around

Coming down from the mountain

I have seen the high and mighty

I will go again someday

But for now I'm coming down

Coming down from the mountain

I have seen the lofty glory

I will go again someday

But for now I'm coming down

Coming down from the mountain

I have seen the high and mighty

I will go again someday

But for now I'm coming down

Coming down from the mountain

I have seen the lofty glory

I will go again someday

But for now I'm coming down
