lyrics

Looming above these jovial valleys
Wretched to my eye
A frightening beauty, cloud-shrouded titans
Cutting through the sky

From up here, within my ken
Lies the vulgar world of men
Far from grief, from tragedy
These somber mountains set me free

Vaporous dancers crash below
concealing the distant Earth
Ephemeral surface, yet grand in scope
obscuring man-kinds worth

And here, alone, I sit and weep
What pleasure do I seek?
A respite from such frigid hearts
Colder than these peaks

From up here, within my ken
Lies the vulgar world of men
Far from grief, from tragedy
These somber mountains set me free

The Earth in tumult on every shore
The truth of mankind's tale
Petty squabbles they call war
Placidity so frail
As these clouds

Yet still I sit atop these somber mountains

We are the cawing of the crows that sit atop the leafless trees, and the morose beating of the wings of skulking vultures. We are the grandeur of the greatest cathedral and the humility it conveys. We are the storms that comfort you in your darkest hour, blotting out the hideous, mocking sun. We are the laudanum in your hand and the absinthe in your throat. We are the Immortal Orchestra. ... more
