A girl has lost her boyfriend on a hike that she was clearly unprepared for and attempts to find her way to the top of the mountain without him. Along the way she alternates between planning, panicking, and being angry at her boyfriend whose idea it was in the first place.
Gee you look familiar
So familiar
I know I've seen you a dozen times
You're the stream, hello stream
Welcome back, I thought I lost you
When I crossed you
Must've been a dream
Losing steam
Losing steam
Hike the Appalachian Trail
What my boyfriend calls a date
So we hike the great outdoors
It's like.. not that great
Somehow, I lost him
I'm not the type to lose things
Not a beauty pageant, school election
Mother of pearl earrings
"Missing girlfriend mauled by bears"
There's somе headline news
Shе somehow lost a mountain
Which is mighty hard to lose
I just made a circle
A giant circle
I made the footprints I'm following
Where's the trail? Naughty trail
Oh it knows my one desire
To go higher
Wants to see me fail
I can't fail
Of course I'll fail
I lack the proper skills
I lack the expertise
I can't see the forest edge
For all the goddamned trees
Jesus, I'm done for
Goodbye to my well-being
Look at all the woodland creatures
Nodding and agreeing
I really should have stayed in bed, I really should lave waited
Now my pure, untainted, clean, unblemished body's been invaded!
Just inhale
And then exhale
If a girl screams in the woods (Ah!)
Can someone hear her yell?
Cause this Appalachian Trail
Is a one-way trail to hell
Wait until I find him
If I find him
He's gonna he was never born
Not a curse, something worse
Maybe something more specific
More horrific
Got time to rehearse
I might be lost as any girl can get
Poked and penetrated, exceedingly upset
But I can climb all night
'Til I become the threat
'Cause I'm not finished, I'm not finished
I'm not finished, I'm not finished
I'm not finished, I'm not finished
Yet
...Bees?
