A lack of oxygen under their skullcaps
 Thin is the air they breathe
 Summit fever grips all of their climbing souls
 Hypoxic delusions upon the descent
 Crowns of thunderhead clouds
 Summit fever, cause for cut-off time ignored
 To understand means trembling
 Heart rate has learned
 Blood turns to sludge, capillaries die
 Hemorrhaging behind frozen eyelid walls
