Everest is a song about fearing of what’s to come in the near future. All these things are holding you back, but Bea encourages you to keep going; whilst hitting you with the truth, and also admitting that she is scared as well.
[Verse 1]
You’re alright, you’re still breathing
Even though you feel dead sometimes
You’ll be fine, you’re still eating
Even though it doesn’t last sometimes
[Chorus]
’Cause even if your eyes are black
Your bones are always gold
’Cause it's climbed up every mountain
That no story’s ever told
’Cause even if your bags are packed
You’ll never leave your home
’Cause you’re scared of all the monsters
That are waiting to unfold
[Verse 2]
Blank noise is an awful sound
And it hurts my ears, I don’t know how
My name’s just a silhouette
Hiding under all the self-doubt
[Chorus]
’Cause even if your eyes are black
Your bones are always gold
’Cause it's climbed up every mountain
That no story’s ever told
’Cause even if your bags are packed
You’ll never leave your home
’Cause you’re scared of all the monsters
That are waiting to unfold
[Outro]
Boy, I’m scared
Boy, I’m scared
Boy, I’m scared
Boy, I’m scared
