Mountains
Honour Crest Lyrics

You put your hands on me, through empty bottles you speak
You physically touch me and use alcohol to communicate.

I won't forgive you
I cannot forgive you for what you have done.

Time after time you let me down
You have repeatedly disappointed me.

Just a child with high expectations
I am a young person with very high hopes.

You won't break me
You will not defeat me.

No matter the circumstance I will rise
Despite any challenges, I will prevail.

You mistake me
You have misunderstood me.

For all the pain you bear alone
You have carried much grief and sadness all on your own.

Why are you so afraid to finally let me in?
Why are you hesitant to allow me into your life?

Try to find emotion for me
Please attempt to express your feelings towards me.

You're always there but it's never enough
You are present, but it is not sufficient.

I'll never be the same again
I have been fundamentally changed.

I'm a victim of ignorance
I have suffered due to a lack of knowledge or understanding.

You preyed on me when I was sick
You took advantage of me when I was vulnerable or unwell.

And now the time has come to play my part
The moment has arrived for me to contribute.

The way it's supposed to be
This is how things are meant to happen.

I won't be like you
I refuse to adopt your behavior or attitude.

Never could I turn my back on you
I could never abandon you.

I'll take my pride, of course what's left
I will preserve my self-respect, whatever remains of it.

And break free while I can escape
I will depart while I have the opportunity.

Another day goes by
Time continues to pass.

I'm going insane
I feel as though I am losing my mind.

In time I'll find a way for things to change
Eventually, I will discover a method to alter the current situation.

I find it tiring to hold it inside (inside)
It is exhausting to keep my feelings bottled up.

I will survive
I will endure and persevere.

You look at me through your eyes
You perceive me through your own perspective.

And see a child with high expectations
You view me as someone with lofty aspirations.

But all I really want is for you to love me true
What I truly desire is for you to care for me sincerely.

Turn the pages, still things are the same
Even though time goes on, nothing has really changed.

I take your place in this never-ending cycle
I assume your role in this unceasing pattern.

I want to show you the light
I wish to reveal to you a positive perspective.

I wish you never had this life
I hope you did not have to experience the difficulties you have faced.

As blood runs through each others' skin
We are united by our familial bond.

I'm always there but somehow I'm never seen
I am present, yet I feel overlooked or ignored.

How about I take the lead
Would it be favorable for me to assume responsibility?

And we can finally have some peace
Perhaps then we will achieve tranquility.

I want to see, to hear, to feel
I desire to comprehend and experience.

What's on your mind
I wish to know what thoughts occupy your thoughts.

Every day and every night
At all times.

I will learn from the cracks in your branches
I will gain insight from your vulnerabilities and shortcomings.

So I can mend mine, so I can mend mine
So that I may improve and repair my own issues.
