Climbing Mountains by Hyperion ============================== Climb a mountain of gold And you'd soon get old Watching the endless horizon That begins to unfold The moment you behold The m'tain beside the one you're on The one made of diamond Climb a mountain of diamond And you'd get down in a second Amidst the queues lining up False faces that you've abandoned What now? dear vagabond You squeeze through a gap And see the one of stone Climb a mountain of stone And it'll be your own Nobody climbs stone mountains Except ruined flesh and bone No glitter, no fame in its cone And none of your favorite stains You eye the mountain of gold Again and again and again Yet you stay on the ground Knowing you while around Got nothing to lose or gain
