I propose to climb Mount Normal
My expedition needs supply
And fortune smiles upon the fool
Who gives at least a try
And in the quest to take Mount Normal

I've no sherpa for a guide
Its the kind of trek that feels its way
As I sacrifice my pride
And aim to dare to risk rejection
And what I don't know how to think
So much that I would give to this
And I don't know what to take

And I'm standing on Mount Normal
And I get higher everyday
And I dream to be somebody else
And everynight I pray that I will
Stand atop Mount Normal
Proudly survey the land and sea
And have happy endings if I grasp
And cling to normalcy

Well I am halfway up Mount Normal
From here atleast it looks that way
Because I notice in the newer rise
A fear I lack today
And it occured to me the summitt
Is something everybody seeks
We're so aware of the precipice
While we dream about the peaks

And I'm standing on Mount Normal
And I get higher everyday
And I dream to be somebody else
And everynight I pray that I will
Stand atop Mount Normal
Proudly survey the land and sea
And have happy endings if I grasp
And cling to normalcy

And I'll chip at the icy obstacles
Until this mountain is secure
And I will realize and find my way
Atleast I am reasonably sure
When I am high atop Mount Normal
I will finally forgive the past
And feel at once I belong to
Normalcy at last

And I'm standing on Mount Normal
And I get higher everyday
And I dream to be somebody else
And everynight I pray that I will
Stand atop Mount Normal
Proudly survey the land and sea
And have happy endings if I grasp
And cling to normalcy

And we're standing on Mount Normal
And we get higher everyday
And we dream to be somebody else
And everynight we pray that we will
Stand atop Mount Normal
Proudly survey the land and sea
And have happy endings if we grasp
And cling to normalcy.
