One with the Mountain

As a kid I tried to get away from people

In the hills behind our house I was peaceful

Y'know I used to wish that I could build a little palace

So I could leave and be protector of the balance

But what they used to say is I could talk for the nation

I never knew if it was rude or a word of affirmation

I would throw away every invitation

I was alive

I was alive

I became one with the mountain

And I was breathing that thin air

I became one with the mountain

I was alive

I became one with the mountain

And I was breathing that thin air

I became one with the mountain

I was alive

They've thrown away their flint and picked up headlights

They're building extensions 'cause who would want to downsize?

They can never see it like we see through their eyes

It's all alive

I became one with the mountain And I was breathing that thin air

I became one with the mountain

I was alive

I became one with the mountain

And I was breathing that thin air

I became one with the mountain

I was alive

When our worlds collide

I'll stay by your side

When our worlds collide

I'll stay by your side

I became one with the mountain

And I was breathing that thin air

I became one with the mountain

I was alive

When our worlds collide

I'll stay by your side

When our worlds collide

I'll stay by your side
