Lyrics

Thunder in my chest, volcano in my head
And it scares me to death (Scares me to death)
I've got a river mind
Jealous of the ocean at times
'Cause I'm out of my depth
And now I stand on the edge of everything I am
I'm looking down and I want to believe the mountain you see in me
(Mountain you see in me)
Yeah, I've got some cuts that I'll make into caves
It's a place for you to stay
And when the wind and waves come
I'll keep you standing above
It's where I found my faith
And now I stand on the edge of everything I am
I'm looking down and I want to believe the mountain you see in me
(Mountain you see in me, mountain you see in me)
So when you were a kid
What did you want to be when you grew up?
Uh, I think what I wanted as a kid
For some reason I wanted to be a lawyer
Uh, and then I wanted to be an army man
And I, I think that's pretty normal
Like when you're a kid
Someone asked you what you want to be when you grow up
And you threw out like an occupation, like a baseball player
Or something like that and I figure
And as I am continuing to grow up
Um, I think it's more about picking what kind of person you wanna be
And deciding what kind of impact you're gonna have on the world around you
I've lived so much of my life like a river, running away from things
I think now if you would have asked me that question
Uh, I would say, I, I want to be a mountain
And now I stand on the edge of everything I am
I'm looking down and I want to believe the mountain you see in me
Mountain you see in me
And now I stand on the edge of everything I am
I'm looking down and I want to believe the mountain you see in me
(Mountain you see in me, mountain you see in me)
And now I stand on the edge of everything I am
I'm looking down and I want to believe the mountain you see in me
(Mountain you see in me, mountain you see in me)
And just a little person that looks up to you and they're like:
You're the landmark (Yeah)
Watch everything you do, always in their view
Always in their view, no matter what
They're gonna run away, turn around, you're right there
And they run to you because you're there
So I think all those things strengthen stature
They're not necessarily the same
For- for me as a tall person
That's- that's sometimes a harder lesson to learn
You become hyper aware of your mortality
Uh, because your secondary—
