Hidden Place

They say there's a hidden place

Somewhere far away

Where the rivers are deeper

And the mountains are higher

One ought to be careful

Two extremes like that

Create rollercoasters

In the heart and in the mind

You can climb so high

Just to fall in the depth

Drown and be swallowed

By the Earth

Or you can swim

As long as you want

Fill yourself with the energy

To run up the endless hills

You won't stay at the top very long

Rides always go rushing down

When you least expect it

Therein lies the danger

The reckless ones don't come back

From the hidden place

The water keeps them eternally

Depth winning over height

There's a lesson to be learned

Don't let yourself go too high

You'll fall into a river of sadness

And you'll never be the same.
