That mountain that you climbed
You told me it felt like Everest
You were so blind
In a land so treacherous
But in reality
It was just an anthill
A speck of salt in the dead sea
On a diet of sleeping pills
Far from base camp
Give me your hand
I will be your hurricane lamp
You and I will trek this land
Let me be your guiding Sherpa
And conquer this depressing frozen peak
Baby steps to conquer inertia
Companionship is what we both seek
You don't have to be alone in your depression
At least I don't want to be
I guess this is my confession
I need you and I want you to need me

That mountain that you climbed
You told me it felt like Everest
You were so blind
In a land so treacherous
But in reality
It was just an anthill
A speck of salt in the dead sea
On a diet of sleeping pills
Far from base camp
Give me your hand
I will be your hurricane lamp
You and I will trek this land
Let me be your guiding Sherpa
And conquer this depressing frozen peak
Baby steps to conquer inertia
Companionship is what we both seek
You don't have to be alone in your depression
At least I don't want to be
I guess this is my confession
I need you and I want you to need me
