Mountain
I could be a singer
If I wasn't tone deaf
I could be a poet
If I knew the words to write
And we could still be in love
If I knew how to be in love
I could cough the blood
Out of my lungs and I could smoke a cigarette
And put it out on the little birdhouse
We built when we were kids
'Cause you know blood leaves a trail
A trail-blazer with paper-mache set ablaze
In the gas tank of your mother's car
We could write a song
We could burn a house down
We could read book and we could ruin our lives
We could tell a lie and we could kiss the priest's wife
We could play god and screw the whole world up
We could eat our hearts out and get real stuffed
We could fall in love and get real stuck
And I'll see you at the top of the mountain
We can hold each others hand
As we fall apart as you look at me and say
"I've gone too far."
As I look at your wrists and see
Just how much I missed when they stashed me away
When they told me you'd be okay okay
Told me you'd be okay
Everyday, it's a getting closer
Going faster than this rollercoaster
Love like yours will never come my way
If I wasn't tone deaf
I could be a poet
If I knew the words to write
And we could still be in love
If I knew how to be in love
I could cough the blood
Out of my lungs and I could smoke a cigarette
And put it out on the little birdhouse
We built when we were kids
'Cause you know blood leaves a trail
A trail-blazer with paper-mache set ablaze
In the gas tank of your mother's car
We could write a song
We could burn a house down
We could read book and we could ruin our lives
We could tell a lie and we could kiss the priest's wife
We could play god and screw the whole world up
We could eat our hearts out and get real stuffed
We could fall in love and get real stuck
And I'll see you at the top of the mountain
We can hold each others hand
As we fall apart as you look at me and say
"I've gone too far."
As I look at your wrists and see
Just how much I missed when they stashed me away
When they told me you'd be okay okay
Told me you'd be okay
Everyday, it's a getting closer
Going faster than this rollercoaster
Love like yours will never come my way
