Mason Jennings - The mountain lyrics

Your rating:

I was wakened late the other night
there was a bird trapped in my heart
I tried to open up and let it out
before it tore my chest apart

I tossed and turned, I prayed for it to stop
I scratched my face and tore my sheets
but I was way too late, my heart was gone
and in its place these bird wings beat

I was wakened from a day to day dream
there was a bird trapped in my mind
I tried to open up and let it out
but there was no use in trying

And where I once had a head full of thoughts
of happiness and daily things
there is only strange darkness now
and in the darkness this bird sings:

"I'm comin' down the mountain
I've been coming for some time
I'm comin' down the mountain
And this whole dark valley is mine."

Oh ballerina, where have you gone?
I've been dreaming of you
Honey, where have you gone?

Oh ballerina, where have you gone?
I've been dreaming of you
since the day you were born

(Oh oh oh my, yes)
