| Ain’t no mystery
|
| About the way we feel
|
| But you get so alone at times
|
| And all you’re trying to do is heal
|
| What is this great misunderstanding?
|
| Where do we go from here?
|
| The future’s in the sky above us
|
| What if we let it just disappear?
|
| On top of this mountain of madness
|
| It’s a long way down to hard ground
|
| Please forgive me for asking
|
| But there must be a better way around
|
| The streets are on fire, the roses are dead and gone
|
| On top of this mountain of madness
|
| It’s a long way down, so long
|
| Ain’t no victory
|
| Worth payin' such a cost
|
| That once the final bell has rung
|
| You’ve earned less than what you’ve lost
|
| So many different people
|
| Different faces and different names
|
| Underneath our blood runs red
|
| And that’s what makes us all the same (Ooh)
|
| On top of this mountain of madness
|
| It’s a long way down to hard ground
|
| Please forgive me for asking
|
| But there must be a better way around
|
| The streets are on fire, roses are dead and gone
|
| On top of this mountain of madness
|
| It’s a long way down, so long
|
| So long
|
| So long |
