Climbing Up Mount Everest

Out of time
Out of luck
Thought I was just a dreamin'
Then I woke up
You said it was over
The end of the line
I'm telling everybody I'm fine
But I'm just

Climbing up Mount Everest
I swear it's like
Crawling from here to Memphis
Knocked senseless, like
Digging a hole to China to find
You don't love me no more

Night after night
I come home
Watch it on the news who else was overthrown
I don't understand it
As hard as I try
But I keep crossing over the great divide
And it's like

Climbing up Mount Everest
I swear it's like
Crawling from here to Memphis
Knocked senseless, like
Digging a hole to China to find
You don't love me no more

It's just like digging a hole to China to find
You don't love me no more
