Lyrics

[male

vocals] (

Slow,

heavy

bass

line) (

Sustained

organ

chords)

Yeah...

they

look

at

the

mountain.

They

look

at

the

man.

But

they

cannot

see

what

the

spirit

sees.

Ooh,

Lord

have

mercy.

Up

where

the

thin

air

kisses

the

grey

stone

A

man

sits

silent,

watching

the

world

alone

He

sees

the

shadows

dancing

before

they

arrive

He

feels

the

heartbeat

of

the

land

come

alive

He

walks

through

the

village,

a

humble

light

But

they

blind

their

eyes

to

his

second

sight

They

call

him

a

warlock,

a

man

of

the

dark

They

aim

at

his

spirit,

they

shoot

for

the

mark

He

warns

of

the

fire,

he

warns

of

the

dry

They

just

laugh

at

the

man

beneath

the

open

sky.

A

prophet

on

the

peak,

they

treat

him

like

a

ghost

Ignored

by

the

many,

betrayed

by

the

host

He

sees

the

sorrow

coming

in

the

morning

tide

While

they

keep

their

secrets

and

their

foolish

pride

Oh,

the

mountain

holds

the

truth

you

refuse

to

hear

But

soon

the

hungry

harvest

will

bring

you

to

your

fear.

They

sit

at

their

tables

with

bread

and

with

wine

They

mock

his

warnings,

they

cross

every

line

'Look

at

this

fool,'

they

whisper

in

the

street

'He

smells

of

the

mountain

and

the

dust

on

his

feet'

He

speaks

of

the

famine,

the

crops

turning

grey

They

call

him

a

madman

and

send

him

away

'Go

back

to

your

cave,'

they

shout

at

the

gate

They

think

they

are

masters

of

their

own

bitter

fate

But

the

wind

starts

to

howl

and

the

rivers

run

low

And

the

seeds

in

the

valley

refuse

now

to

grow.

A

prophet

on

the

peak,

they

treat

him

like

a

ghost

Ignored

by

the

many,

betrayed

by

the

host

He

sees

the

sorrow

coming

in

the

morning

tide

While

they

keep

their

secrets

and

their

foolish

pride

Oh,

the

mountain

holds

the

truth

you

refuse

to

hear

But

soon

the

hungry

harvest

will

bring

you

to

your

fear.

Can

you

feel

the

earth

shaking

under

your

feet?

Is

the

silence

of

the

forest

starting

to

retreat?

You

didn't

want

the

truth,

you

wanted

the

lies

Now

look

at

the

hunger

reflected

in

your

eyes

He

tried

to

save

the

harvest,

he

tried

to

save

the

day

But

you

threw

his

mercy

and

his

wisdom

away.

A

prophet

on

the

peak,

they

treat

him

like

a

ghost

Ignored

by

the

many,

betrayed

by

the

host

He

sees

the

sorrow

coming

in

the

morning

tide

While

they

keep

their

secrets

and

their

foolish

pride

Oh,

the

mountain

holds

the

truth

you

refuse

to

hear

But

soon

the

hungry

harvest

will

bring

you

to

your

fear.

He

sits

on

the

peak...

Watching

the

village

burn

in

the

hunger.

He

told

you...

he

told

you

so.

But

the

mountain

is

quiet

now.

Yes,

the

mountain

is

so

quiet

now. (
