At the roof of the world
by @gordon
Liner Notes
Another song about nature and such like. Probably.
Lyrics
At the roof of the world
Its all downhill from here
Sky so close you can taste it
Hold on to your dreams
Before they disappear
On the ocean's bed
The water feels like lead
Heavier than a dozen anvils
Thick with unknown creatures
Comfort is so hard to come by
A parallel universe unseen
Unloved forgotten abandoned
Humans make their mark
Century after century
Age after age
We think we can tame nature
It has other ideas
At the roof of the world
It’s all downhill from here
On the ocean’s bed
The water feels like lead
Everything’s connected
