Mountain Knows Lyrics


From time immemorial

She’s stood there watching us all

You owe her veneration

Damned be those who oppose

Why, don’t you worry now

Abandon your fear

Her vision will guide you

And make your woes disappear

My repression is her obsession

A slave to blind tradition

Freedom through excommunication

My life is mine alone

Up in the clouds, standing tall

Never asleep, the Mountain knows

Under her gaze you’re not alone

Watching you close, rise and fall

Forever in panopticon

I must look for a way out

Looming in the distance

The Mountain shakes at its core

My last act of defiance

None have committed before

With no guilt or confusion

I leave her behind

The world opens before me

For I am no longer blind
