The Mountain |
I took my heart in my hands, |
And placed it inside the mountain, |
Because I can’t stand to think, |
That the strongest roots won’t, |
Save you when the bough breaks. |
I count the days on my hands, |
That I’ve sat inside this mountain, |
And watched the world decay. |
Beaten by the wind, and fire, and rain. |
Plagues and pestilence, they fill my head. |
Trapped in the finality of every end. |
When every tear shed becomes a sea, |
For you to sink in… |
You have the same disease, |
And the contagion spreads. |
The same disease as me, |
The curse of empathy. |
All hail the mountain. |
Cold and callous. |
Bastion of blood and stone. |
All hail the mountain, |
Alter and antidote. |
You have the same disease, |
And the contagion spreads. |
The same disease as me, |
The curse of empathy. |
Have I just become a monolith, |
Somewhere in between gallant and grotesque? |
Well, I could never find peace in emptiness, |
With these drums of war pounding in my chest. |
I refuse to come down. |
Leave me inside my mountain. |
Leave me inside my mountain. |
Leave me inside my mountain. |
All hail the mountain |
Alter, and antidote. |
