about

Moody electro-piano-pop alternative record written to move mountains.

lyrics

I was a just a little boy who knew too much
How to navigate the wilderness
I walked a million miles searching for a light
Then I was paralyzed by a mountain

As it grew I fell down, down
way down the rabbit hole searching for Alice
Cause I knew that I was broken
and she'd have the remedy to kill my emotions

Then I never knew all that love could do
I was lost inside her garden
Till the colors faded into shades of grey
and my skin began to harden
and somehow I became a mountain

Its time I say goodbye..the taste of you
still corrupts my mind
Now courage flows through my veins
I wear my bruise like a ring
it's a sign of my strength

As I grew I fell down again, way down
fell into the echoless silence
Cause some things were left unspoken
Now a voice inside tells me not to hide
so I doubled in size

Then I never knew all that love could do
I was lost inside her garden
Till the colors faded into shades of grey
and my skin began to harden
and somehow I became a mountain

Yeah I'm a mountain a mother fucking mountain
As strong as a mountain
You made me a mountain, as strong as a mountain
a mother fucking mountain
I'm a mountain, mountain
I'm a mountain
