Mountain Lyrics


Made of stone and yet alive

A colossal collection of rock

Held together by forces far beyond

The simple fantasy of man

Nevertheless, it still stands there

And it always has

The mountain reaches for the sky

It always will and it can never die

At the foot of the mountain

A forest is blooming

The smells from its flowers

It is incredible

How can such beauty

Thrive at the feet

Of what has claimed so many lives

Many men have tried to concur

But almost all has failed

For thousands of years

The only one still standing

Mountain can never die

It is free from all the chains of men

Free from disease and pain and sorrow

But can it truly be called freedom

When you are bound and cursed to always stand

No matter if we live or die

Mountain lives on

It always has and it always will

Forever standing still

Mountain high up in the sky

As above so below so almighty

It is nonsensical

Almost spiritual

Mountain can never die

I cannot deny that my spirit is high

But admitted I don’t know exactly why

The mountain is taking my breath away

My mind is led astray

At the top of the mountain

Ice is alive

As cold as corpses

Of kings long gone

As full of life as the forest

As full of decay is the frost

Yet it still is beautiful

A crystal-clear kingdom of death

A tear escapes the socket of my eye

As I begin to die

What emotion hide beneath the surface

What lies beyond our reach

Permanent frost on the mountaintop

Nothing can live here

Nothing except the mountain itself

It thrives in the cold as it does in the green

How is it possible

What does it mean

I have been atop for too long

Hypothermia has become unavoidable

I cannot live and as I die

I can’t help but to smile

Let me tell you why

All these words aren’t even closely

Describing upon what I gaze

The beauty of the mountaintop I see

A memory that not even death can erase

I want to believe that it was it worth

But I can never be sure

One thing certain is that my death

On the mountain is pure

Mountain high up in the sky

As above so below so almighty

It is nonsensical

Almost spiritual

Mountain can never die

I cannot deny that my spirit is high

But admitted I don’t know exactly why

The mountain is taking my breath away

Mountain high up in the sky

As above so below so almighty

It is nonsensical

Almost spiritual

Mountain can never die

I cannot deny that my spirit is high

But admitted I don’t know exactly why

The mountain is taking my breath away

My mind is led astray

This is what happens on the mountain

This is what happens on the mountain

This is what happens on the mountain

This is what happens on the mountain

This is what happens on the mountain

This is what happens on the mountain

This is what happens on the mountain
