Lyrics
Worm Mountain
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When you try
You will see
When you fail
Up on the mountain
But down in a hole
Only nature
Has control
When you run
You will hear
Through the mist
A bell rings clear
But the ring
Is just a sound
Of your star burn
Burning out, out, out
On the mountain
Way up high
There are worms
With diamond eyes
When you squeeze them
It makes light
Through the forest
When you're blind
When you're blind
