I love the vivid symbolism at the end of this song. The “mountains of fear” are a barrier that cuts you off from the truth (“grasping for vision”). If you cannot master your fears, the remaining path is the “valley of lies”, being dishonest with yourself and others. To break out of this cycle, you must look within yourself, accept yourself with all your faults (“to bring down the mountain/ I must close my eyes”), and you will be a stronger person (“so I might see/ so I might free/ a better part of me”). I’m not sure how to interpret the rest of it, but it’s sure nice to listen to.
