Song | What? |
Artist | Mount Eerie |
Album | No Flashlight: Songs of the Fulfilled Night |
When I was sturdier I'd talk about how | |
"certainly we'll die | |
Eat shadows, bury candles. | |
Die." | |
When I was sturdier I thought | |
"So what? I am forever mountainous!" | |
I bravely said, "No death of any kind could | |
ever matter to my mountain mind. | |
Come years, come surging, I am tall!" | |
When I was "sturdier" I was secretly afraid, | |
and the fear was blinding. | |
As you can see. I am no rock. | |
Through mountain wind, | |
What I actually am is thinning clouds. |
