Lyrics

Intro

Light!… yeah… yeah...

Verse

Twelve more months on this ticking clock,

But my mind’s already past the block.

Snow peaks shining, calling my name,

New land, new life, not the same game.

Verse

Days crawl slow like a midnight train,

Same old streets, same cold rain.

I’m done with the noise, I’m done with the chase,

I need blue skies, wide open space.

Chorus

Picture me there with the sun on my skin,

Fresh air hittin’ when I breathe it in.

Mountains stand tall like kings in the mist,

Whispering, “come here, you were born for this.”

Verse

I’m heading to the land where the water’s clear,

Where the echoes of the hills hit sharp in my ear.

From the valley to the peak, sky painted in blue,

When I touch that ground, I’m brand new.

Verse

Glass lake glows in the break of dawn,

Still like a secret the world sleeps on.

Pines sway slow to the breeze that hums,

Every step I take to that place, it comes.

Chorus

This city got me boxed, I’m breaking free,

Trading concrete walls for infinity.

And maybe on the shore there’s a smile I know,

But the mountains alone are enough to show.

I’m heading to the land where the water’s clear,

Where the echoes of the hills hit sharp in my ear.

From the valley to the peak, sky painted in blue,

When I touch that ground, I’m brand new.

Verse

Golden roads stretching wide through the trees,

Every curve whispers truth in the alpine breeze.

One step closer, yeah, I feel it inside,

The closer I get, the harder I ride.

Verse

Stars hang low when the night drifts in,

Silence so deep that it cuts through the skin.

No pressure, no sirens, just rivers that stream,

This is the moment, I’m living the dream.

Verse

Fireplace glow on a winter night,

Snow falls steady in the pale moonlight.

Peace in the hills that no money could buy,

Only the mountains can lift me this high.

Verse

No deadlines, no lines, no traffic to dodge,

Just trails in the pines where the wild things lodge.

Fresh wind carrying the scent of rain,

Every sunset different, never the same.

Chorus

So I’m counting down, yeah, slow but sure,

Each day closer to that open door.

Austria’s calling, can’t turn it away,

I’m gone in a year, I’ll be home to stay.

Chorus

Light!
