about

This is a song about pushing your boundaries, getting out of your comfort zone and achieving something you never thought possible. Even when doing so, is that the end? The height of achievement ("Are We Enlightened Yet?")? No, let's not get our expectations out of whack! You are likely changed in the process, however. So, there is always another hill to climb and another level to reach.

lyrics

Step by step it's a long and lonely climb
Can't see you there even when you're close behind
A slippery slope doesn't mean you're going to fall
But whatcha gonna do when you finally hit the wall?

You tell me, don't be such a fool
Go for it and ignore the rules

Grab hold, hang on, live like today's your last
Stand up, be free...and come away with me

No turning back, but my body wants to fight
Feeling all wrong surely doesn't make it right
Pushing to the edge it's a dangerous game
Make it or not we will never be the same

You tell me, don't be such a fool
Go for it and ignore the rules

Grab hold, hang on, live like today's your last
Stand up, be free...and come away with me

I thought there was a prize at the top
Are we enlightened yet?
Are we enlightened yet?

I expected more than a long drop
Are we enlightened yet?
Are we enlightened yet?
Are we enlightened yet?

You tell me, don't be such a fool
Go for it and ignore the rules

Grab hold, hang on, live like today's your last
Stand up, be free...come on, come on, come on

Grab hold, hang on, live like today's your last
Stand up, be free...and come away with me

Yeah, yeah, yeah
