w o r d s:

I thought I saw a mountain laughing
At the shadow he was casting
Over me

The sun on his back, his face in darkness
Along with the whole county

He beckoned us approach
And his voice bellowed loudly

I begged them not to go
But they all marched on without me

And the earth beneath us quaked
As he issued his demand
A simple sacrifice
To please the new god of our land...

Feed all your acorns to the cave
And hear them rattle into the dark

As your squirrels go mad with hunger
They’ll gnaw off all your bark

With the trees all bare
There’ll be no place to hide your insects

And the birds will feast
Until they’re all too fat to get back to their nests

And the mountain only laughed
As the little birdies flapped their helpless wings

With the eggs all undefended
The birds’ lineage is ended come next spring

And with the birds all gone
In the mornings when you wake
You’ll open up that window
And you’ll lament that there is no one left to sing

we recorded this real quick for a comp but it wasn't high enough quality. so here it will sit on soundcloud, waiting for someone to love it. 



but it is unlovable.
