The Mountains, They Said 가사

The mountains, they said Let us consider this This pathetic man, so small, so frail So weak, so afraid The mountains, they said Let us crush him With a hail of ice, barrage of stone Pulverized Never to be found To the mountains, the ocean said I have watched this man resting by the river of peace I will open the mouth of the river and swallow him Whole Casting him against your cliffs Dragging him down to my dark depths Utterly destroyed Detritus of flesh Down to the abyss, where Even the light dare not go Then the earth, it said What a wretched worm, this man I will open my bosom Growing wider and deeper Causing him to fall into black Back into the womb of the world As if he had never been born Forgotten and alone Amongst all that rots and decays Stillbirth of eternity past Closing the gaping chasm above As he falls Forever The mountains, they said Let us crush him The ocean, she said I will engulf him The earth, it said I will bury him Never to see Never to breathe Never to feel The light Forever In dark Suffocating Drowning Crushed Entombed Gone
