I Have Been to the Mountain

I Have Been to the Mountain - Kevin Morby

Calling out

Demanding answers

Bleeding sky

Cry for hours

Dropping peace bombs

Collecting prayers

Scarlet mirrors

Scarlet stains

I see

I have been to the mountain

And I have walked on his shore

I have seen

But I can't see him no more

Round the mouth

Make an echo

Destroy the destroyer

And do it fast

That man lived in this town

Till that pig took him down

And have you heard the sound

Of a man stop breathing pleading

Ah ah ah

Ah ah ah

Ah ah ah

Ah ah

I have been to the valley

And I have sung all her songs

Watch me see

Watch me sing along

And I say

"I have been to the mountain

And I have walked on his shore

I have seen

But I can't see him no more"
