The 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.
Oh you feel and you taste it
And you want to go higher
So what do you do?
And so you peek into the mountain,
Where your desire goes
Spilt blood on this place
It only echoes true,
All through the days
And so you peek into the mountain,
Where you desire goes
Oh, having the space to know
The way it is coming down
Take it on down the line
Oh, having the space to know
The way it is coming down
Take it on down the line
Well, it's hard to get ahead
When the center is bleeding
They tear out the middle
And they send it all away
Tastless lead sitting on our tongues
And then we have to worry
More about the ones we love
When you see, there smoke there's fire [x4]
Oh, having the space to know,
The way it is coming down
Take it on down the line
Oh, having the space to know,
The ways it is coming down
Take it on down the line
Oh, you feel and you taste it
And you want to go higher
So what do you do?
And so you peek into the mountain,
Where your desire goes
Spilt blood on this place
It only echoes truth,
All through the day
And so you peak into the mountain,
Where your desire goes
Oh-oh, having the space to know
The way it is coming down
Take it on down the line
Oh, having the space to know
The way it is coming down
Take it on down the line
