Bring Me the Mountain

You can trace the scars on my outline
I know that you can read them like a street sign
Couldn't even swim in the red tide
As you sit by me on the bath side
Couldn't believe it
The days and the ways we received it
In the weeks, introspective
Didn't think you could confess it

Bring me the mountain
Before the end of the world
Bring me the myrrh and the incense
Covered in gold
Tell mе a story, show me your dark
Give me a hand down, your еyes lookin' up
Tell me a story
Before the end of the world

Could they see when I was inside-out?
Did she listen when you preach?
Wash away your doubt?
Holy water, little did she know
You'd let the ocean take its toll

You want the words to come spilling like a stream
Cut the rust from the blood as it gushes out of me
Is there pleasure in the pain
Even if it's agony?
You can trust there was love if you had

Bring me the mountain
Before the end of the world
Bring me the myrrh and the incense
Covered in gold
Tell me a story, show me your dark
Give me a hand down, your eyes lookin' up
Tell me a story
Bring me the mountain
Before the end of the world

Oh, if we had a penny
For every lie that you told
(It's all right, it's all right)
(You're not fine, you're not fine)
(It's all right, it's all right)
Life's too short to run away (It's all right)
I want to stay with– (It's all right)
Life's too short to run away (It's all right)
I want to stay with– (It's all right)
(It's all right)
