Diamond Face Songtext
Songtext powered by LyricFind
I was on the mountain in my dream of death
The snow plummed off the cornice up ahead
Like the feather I found out on the beach
When I was a little kid
I have decided to stay with the rocks
With the bears, among them, like one of them
Out on the alpine tundra
Buried in a moon white avalanche
These limbs are given literally
Oh, brutality
Oh, how I've stepped on backs to climb a broken ladder
From which the view was crowded with emptiness
Oh, wilderness, as I climb this rock's face
Clouds rest below like white plates,
If I fall I will surely die
And my empty shell will remain
Out with the bees and things
Floating from the earth like a silver plume
This shattered body lies at the cliffs base
Or sloshing through the stomach of a less hungry bear
The earth turns bodies back into green trees
We all live for so many things
And yet we all die for nothing
Just to see my own face staring back at me
The snow plummed off the cornice up ahead
Like the feather I found out on the beach
When I was a little kid
I have decided to stay with the rocks
With the bears, among them, like one of them
Out on the alpine tundra
Buried in a moon white avalanche
These limbs are given literally
Oh, brutality
Oh, how I've stepped on backs to climb a broken ladder
From which the view was crowded with emptiness
Oh, wilderness, as I climb this rock's face
Clouds rest below like white plates,
If I fall I will surely die
And my empty shell will remain
Out with the bees and things
Floating from the earth like a silver plume
This shattered body lies at the cliffs base
Or sloshing through the stomach of a less hungry bear
The earth turns bodies back into green trees
We all live for so many things
And yet we all die for nothing
