Sleeping Mountain - Lyrics by Schnell Fenster


Lyrics
I hear the distant roar
As the waves cut into the bay
Just like the hungry words
That's eaten this thing away
Whoa! I can feel it disappearing Underneath that cool veneer it's boiling hot And one day soon I know you're going to blow your top Like a sleeping mountain - lying there waiting to blow
And some day It'll rise up
Rise up so high
And there'll be a cloud of smoke
Across a magenta sky
Whoa! I can feel the lava flowing Underneath that cool veneer it's boiling hot And one day soon I know you're going to blow your top Heading down that icy slope, crystal pure Behind the rugged beauty of your tranquil shore Like a sleeping mountain - lying there just waiting to blow Like a sleeping mountain - lying there just ready to blow
Never seem to notice if it's dusk or dawn
Might as well be naked in a thunderstorm And underneath that cool veneer it's boiling hot One day soon I know you're going to blow your top Like a sleeping mountain - lying there just waiting to blow Like a sleeping mountain Come on and let me feel the lava flow.
