It is lonely at the top

I never knew this feeling

till climbed to the top of the mountain

the feeling was amazing but it was lonely

There was no one up here but me

there's so much space for many

but I wonder why it is always lonely at the top

the road to the top comes with a lot of pain and uncertainty

the relief of accomplishment is exhilarating like a drug

Sitting, watching and waiting

for the next mountain to climb

It becomes a duty to reach for the greatest height

but in the end, it won't matter if I fall

it is lonely at the top and more lonely at the fall
