Текст песни
Spring of ninety-six, a dream takes flight
In Nepal's embrace, beneath the giant's height
Rob Hall's steady hand, a guide's command
Meets Scott Fisher's crew in this promised land
Two teams unite, with a single goal in sight
To conquer Everest, to claim the fading light
Acclimatize in stages, breathing thinner air
A whispered warning lost, a silent, rising prayer
The tenth of May dawns, the final push begins
But ropes unfixed create unspoken sins
The line is slow, the sun begins to wane
Beck Weathers slips, but held back from the pain
While Doug, he struggles, pushing through the haze
His summit fever burns through these final days
A message from the base, a storm is on its way
But the peak's siren call makes them want to stay
Oh, Everest, your fury starts to blow
A white-out veil on everything below
The price for glory, paid in ice and stone
A final whisper on a frozen throne
So close to heaven's door, they heard the angels call
But lost within the tempest, one by one they fall
The storm descends, a monster in the night
Scott Fisher's fire extinguished from the light
Anatoli fights the cold, a hero in the snow
While Rob stays back, won't let his promise go
A final call to Jan, a voice across the sea
I love you Sleep well, my love Don't worry about me
He names his unborn child, a love that won't grow old
A story etched in ice, forever to be told
