I'm walking alone tonight 'cause
I've only got room for two
Me and my burdened black heart
It's all we know how to do
Yet, I look for a bigger bang
Than the kind I'm continually seeing
Sick of all this inertia
I want a human being!
Lover, can you help me?
I'm a child lost in the woods
A black heart pollutes me
Then I think
You're a mountain
That I'd like to climb
Not to conquer
But to share in the view!
Pulled by a false inertia
And pushed out by circumstance
A pistol firing at my feet that's
Coercing me to dance
Yet, I look for a bigger bang
Than the kind I'm sorry to know
Here I am, first foot of the climb
Watch me go!
Lover, can you help me?
I'm a child lost in the woods
A lit path eludes me
Then I think
You're a mountain
That I'd like to climb
Not to conquer
But to share in the view!
You're a bonfire!
And I'm gathered 'round you
Set this old black
Heart inertia aflame
Send it away
You're a mountain
That I'd like to climb
Not to conquer
But to share in the view!
You're a bonfire!
And I'm gathered 'round you
Set this old black
Heart inertia aflame
Set it aflame, send it away
