Lift Any Mountain

from Politics by Icicle

/

lyrics

I wonder if I hear my calling
Or if it is a distant noise
A sort of interference roaming
Makes my thoughts rattle like toys

I plummet down into a spiral
Seduced by questions of despair
An existential ancient rival
Awaits for me with arms in the air

You can lift up any mountain on your own
But your feet ought to be grounded much like a stone
You can lift up any mountain if you try
But you’ll waste all that you got if you don’t know why

I wonder if I hear my calling
Or if it’s just a fading dream
As if I’m holding to a story
That ended when I was only eighteen

I travel back in time like Tony
To find the kid that once was me
To touch his soul and let it calm me
Remind me there is much more to see

You can lift up any mountain on your own
But your feet ought to be grounded much like a stone
You can lift up any mountain if you try
But you’ll waste all that you got if you don’t know why

I don’t know what my life would have been
If I had only second-guessed
Would I be singing lullabies while
I’m leaning over somebody’s head

Is this a sign of wisdom calling?
To heed the point of no return
To whisper words of great importance
“A life well lived is a life lived well”

You can lift up any mountain on your own
But your feet ought to be grounded much like a stone
You can lift up any mountain if you try
But you’ll waste all that you got if you don’t know why
