Mountain at My Gates

I see a mountain at my gates
I see it more and more each day
And what I give, it takes awayWhether I go or when I stay

I see a mountain at my gates
I see it more and more each day
I see a fire out by the lake
I′ll drive my car without the brakes

I see a mountain in my way
It's looming larger by the day
I see a darkness in my fate
I′ll drive my car without the brakes

Oh, give me some time
Show me the foothold from which I can climb
Yeah, when I feel low
You show me a signpost for where I should go

I see a mountain at my gates
I see it more and more each day
And my desire wears a dark dress
Ah, each day, I see you less

Oh, give me some time
Show me the foothold from which I can climb
Yeah, when I feel low
You show me a signpost for where I should go

Through lanes and stone rows
Black granite, wind blows
Fire lake and far flame
Go now but come again
Dark clouds gather 'round
Will I run or stand my ground?

Oh, when I come to climb
Show me the mountain so far behind
Yeah, it's farther away
Its shadow gets smaller day after day

Yeah, give me my way
Give me my love
Give me my choice
You keep me coming around
Give me my fate
Give me my lungs
Give me my voice
You keep me coming around

Give me my lungs
Give me my, give me my, give me my, give me my
Give me my, give me my, give me my, give me my, give me my
Give me my fate
Give me my lungs
Give me my choice
You keep me coming ′round
