Can you feel it? He says. Can you feel the mountains crumbling, Falling apart on a grand scale? Well I can feel them dissolving around me, Failing everything and burning the forests down. Ruining my chances with a girl just for being me, Coz the rivers run dry with a sludgy mess of ash and liquid confidence. Running higher and standing tall, but the more I climb the steeper it gets. The winds whip my face and slash my wrists, And the one person who can help, is falling down too. If only I could have helped you sooner. Up here the butterflies are dragons, And the clouds are choking me out. Perhaps I'm not as far up as I thought, But the pressure here is too much for me, and theres no rescue team in sight.

The Mountains Are Crumbling
Can you feel it? He says. Can you feel the mountains crumbling, Falling apart on a grand scale? Well I can feel them dissolving around me, Failing everything and burning the forests down. Ruining my chances with a girl just for being me, Coz the rivers run dry with a sludgy mess of ash and liquid confidence. Running higher and standing tall, but the more I climb the steeper it gets. The winds whip my face and slash my wrists, And the one person who can help, is falling down too. If only I could have helped you sooner. Up here the butterflies are dragons, And the clouds are choking me out. Perhaps I'm not as far up as I thought, But the pressure here is too much for me, and theres no rescue team in sight.
