Touching the Void Lyrics

Deciding to act
Cutting the rope
Instead of a certain death

Falling into a crevasse
Shattering the knee
Effectively being dead

Pulling the rope
Finding it`s been cut
Being all alone
All alone

Fear-filled night
Touching the void

Climbing into the dark depth of the cravesse
Energised by hope of an escape
Careful pattern of movement, able to repeat
Several setbacks finally emerging into the light

The voices – led into the light

Delirious with pain
Exhaustion
Lack of food
Mind keeps wondering off
Crawling on
Wearied by fear
Awoken by the voice

Pulling of despair
But never giving up
Voices urging on

The voices urging on

Being consumed by a sense of black despair
Struggling on collapsing frequently
Desire of giving up but the voices driving on
Moving forward. Calling out. Coming home
