Speeding faster I am the downhill king Destined to race to the end My engine’s screaming and I crash and burn Born to fail and never learn
I’m for tumble you’ve seen it before You chose to ignore it all I know what I want and you know that I’m bored
Down from the mountain Down to the dark My dying soul rest from the heart My years of starlight My days of rain I see you flashing inside my brain Down from the mountain
Bomb crushing words you will mark my return Licking my wounds in the wind Dragging my questions to nevermore Somewhere in time
Down from the mountain Up near the top I’ll fall again Come to descend Down from the mountain Up near the top To see if you will still pretend Down from the mountain
Down from the mountain Down to the dark My dying soul rest from the heart My years of starlight My days of rain I see you flashing inside my brain
Down from the mountain I’m coming fast I crossed the open land And left my past In river dark I played the game And now I sing my last refrain Down from the mountain
