Chapter I - I Carve Mountains In vain or not You will be stopped Cast off into my words All the discrepancies That connect and bind us And always blind us But i will take your hand You can take your stand Words form platforms that carry you As my thoughts incite, Oh they do, They do Carve mountains with my pen Chisel away my friend The bridges that depend On every hook and letter For worse or better Opinions of you Whispered in ink Shouted in melody by the strings Vibrating on my life Notes casting stares at your face Along the musical line, they race They know you All too well Oh they do, they do So please excuse my faults As i decide to figuratively tear you apart
