I'm the Mountain

Days go by, but I don’t seem to notice them
Just a roundabout of turns
All these nights, I lie awake and on my own
My pale fire hardly burns
Never fell in love with the one who loves me
But with ones who love me not
Are we doomed to live in grief and misery
Is it everything we’ve got
I’m the mountain, rising high
It’s the way that I survive
I’m the mountain, tell my tale
The greatest story’s now for sale
I’m the seaside, I’m the waves
I’m the one that makes you crave
I’m the valley, I’m the hills
Look at me, I’m standing still
I’m the mountain, I’m the plains
Tell me now, am I insane
I’m the spirit, I’m the source
I’m the roots, I am the doors
I’m the roads, long and hard
Running out of my heart
I’m the mountain, climb me up
And we’re never gonna stop
I’m the locker, I’m the key
I am who you want to be
I’m the reason, I’m the blame
I will never be the same
Mirror, mirror, tell the truth
Of the old ones and the youth
All the things we’re hiding from ourselves
Mirror, mirror, show me now
What will I become and how
For now I’m just a mountain
I’m a mountain
Down the road that takes me to the Headley Grange
I see a figure of a young man
He’s torn with doubts, mistakes, his selfishness and rage
Doing all the best he can
I’m not so blind to see
That this young man is me
