Modest Mountains

I know you’re tired, darling, don’t give in

It’s been a while, darling

And though you’re tired, darling, don’t give in

It’s been awhile, darling

Modest mountains, cautious frame

Let’s get free, let’s feel again

I hear the coast is peaceful

Or so they say

I hear the coast is peaceful across the way

Beyond this rocky terrain

And even though

We feel tied to this space

These ropes are just illusions

Modest mountains, cautious frame

Let’s get free, let’s feel again

I hear the coast is peaceful

Or so they say

I don’t hear a word, only nothing

But the fierce rushing of wind throughout the land

And I know we’ve a long, long ways to go

Oh, I know all that we know is nothing

Modest mountains, cautious frame

Let’s get free, let’s feel again

I hear the coast is peaceful, or so they say

Way past this rocky terrain
