lyrics

Fire up on the mountain
Wooden wheels are starting to turn
There’s lightning in the wind
My ghost begins to burn
The higher the pine
The faster the flames will churn

Sitting on my front porch
Watching the smoke roll on
I come from that mountain
Over yonder, from way beyond
If you don’t know my name
I’ll answer to “singer of songs”

The bears are asleep
The eagle’s got only one eye
I can see with my scope
Just where he goes to fly
Ask, and he’ll tell you
Just why it is that we must die

I’m looking at your picture
Reflection of flames in the glass
You always said that

This could never come to pass
You lit a match to your own house
How did you think it would last

Run into the cave
Throw your bones in the dark
Run down the road
Burn up just like the bark
every chance of escape
Is becoming very stark

The springs are boiling
It’s steaming from the creek bed
The rockslide is smoking
The sky turned black and red
I’ll wake in the morning
But tonight I’ll surely be dead
