Mountain Tomb Lyrics by Filthy Thieving Bastards

A Melody of Retreads and Broken Quills

2001

Visit me on a sunny day
Or any day you can
'Cause I've been getting lonely
And I never have any plans
Take me away one day
We'll tread our own fine path
I'll follow your steps through cobbled streets
Over rivers and the mountain pass
I've been sleeping easy in the morning
Stone cold dead in the afternoon
I'm a wretch and it feels like dusk is falling
And I'm waiting for you to take me up to the mountain tomb
I try to explain to the others
The reasons why I ran
I tried to revel in my dreams
But nightmares make me sad
If you come to take me walking
To your favorite place of rest
I'll walk the longest hours
In a faithful pilgrimage
I've been sleeping easy in the morning
Stone cold dead in the afternoon
I'm a wretch and it feels like dusk is falling
And I'm waiting for you to take me up to the mountain tomb
I want to kiss the hand of ages
And touch your darkened face
Take my [?] home with me
And put it in the proper place
