  Too Close

  What you gonna feel, what you gonna defend
  What you gonna believe, faced with the end
  Who you gonna thank, how you gonna survive
  What you gonna tell, those left behind

  What you gonna pray, what you gonna send
  What you gonna request, close to the end
  Who you gonna call, how you gonna decide
  What you gonna tell, those left behind

  140 miles, too close
  Ground shuddered, severed ropes
  150, Khumbu Ghosts
  Spirits broken, finding hope

  Barrage emerges, whiteout surges
  Camp distorting, to the light were crawling
  The light is calling

  What we gonna recite, what we gonna commend
  What we gonna mourn, here at the end
  Who we gonna lament, how we gonna shine
  What we gonna tell, those left behind

  140 miles, too close
  Ground shuddered, fear evoked
  3 5 9, souls surprised
  No escape, Moira rises

  Barrage emerging, whiteout surging
  Camp distorting, to the light were crawling
  The light is calling
  140 miles, too close

  Barrage emerging, whiteout surging
  Camp distorting, to the light were crawling
  The Light Forming
  The light is calling
