Matterhorn Lyrics by Jason Lytle

Dept. of Disappearance (Deluxe Edition)

2012

[Verse 1]
Ten o'clock and her life quit going
It wasn't long till it started snowing
And the end saw the wind really blowing around
Lone bird on a perch nearby
Saw something in her come untied
And then shivered just a bit as she aimed toward the sky
[Chorus]
Get down that Matterhorn
What's wrong with the safe and warm?
What's wrong with a book and tea at night?
Up high in a friendless wind
Tears frozen upon descent
Get down that Matterhorn again
[Verse 2]
There's a handwritten note he wrote
In the pocket of a cold down coat
On the body of the one who has left our world
And in the note there's a love professed
And some apology about some mess
But she won't be reading those words too soon
[Chorus]
Get down that Matterhorn
What's wrong with the safe and warm?
What's wrong with a book and tea at night?
Up high in a friendless wind
Tears frozen upon descent
Get down that Matterhorn again
[Post-Chorus]
Up high in a frightening sky
What's wrong with a quiet night?
Get down that Matterhorn again
