I Am a Mountain

There is a blindness you can have and never know
Where you can only see the things that you let go
I keep coming back here like birds on holidays
I am a mountain, I’m always in the way
There is a carbon dated man in the museum
Was it the ice age, was it love that did him in?
Waiting buried somewhere deep beneath the ground
I am a mountain and I will be found
There was a child that lost its mother in a crowd
He cried out for her but his voice was cancelled out
Never found by now that child would have grown old
I am a mountain that’s been stripped of all her gold
I am a mountain
I am a mountain
I am a mountain
I am a mountain, oh
I am a mountain
I am a mountain
I am a mountain
