===================
Don’t make a mountain
Out of the dust under your feet
You’re only human
Any attempt will leave you in defeat
Put the kettle on instead
Run a bath or have a nap
Take a couple deep breaths
And don’t worry, darling
You’ll go in circles
If you keep walking the same path
You’ve got the courage
To deviate and climb the mountain instead
So you made a few mistakes
You’re on your way to something great
The view alone is worth the weight
So don’t worry, darling
Sunrise over the mountain
There’s a new day coming
Breathe in every moment
You’re a part of a bigger picture
On your way back down
Listen to the mountain song
Swim under the waterfall
Feel your heart beating strong
Jump into a rushing stream
Know what freedom really means
Run and skip among the trees
Laugh at the absurdity
And don’t, don’t worry, darling …...more
...more
