Altre Canzoni cover

Mtn. Song testo

This drink will swallow me whole into the ocean
Where I’ll dig my heels into the floor for hundreds of years
Oh your life now lies sleeping so deep in the gallows
Deep in the hull of my ship
That I thought would be so easy to steer

Take your telegrams and your dirty talk and master plans
And keep them to yourself if you will

Did you know that the world is a mountain
Did you know that the world is a river
Did you know that the world is a mountain
Did you know that one day we would meet on a hill

Oh my life is now built upon wheels
Which means I’m always moving on
Through the forest and out to the desert
Where my head will finally clear
And your face will be permanently etched underneath of my eyelids

You sleep in the hull of my ship
Deep in the pit of my guts
Always talking outside of my room
On this ship that I never could steer

Take your telegrams and your dirty talk and master plans
And keep them to yourself if you will

Did you know that the world is a mountain
Did you know that the world is a river
Did you know that the world is a mountain
Did you know that one day we would meet on a hill
