Walking alone tonight
‘cause I've only got room for two
Me and my burdened black heart
It's all we know how to do

Yet I look for a bigger bang
than the kind I continually see
Sick of all this inertia
Oh, won't you mend me?

Lover, can you help me?
I'm a child lost in the woods
A black heart pollutes me
and I think...

You're a mountain that I'd like to climb
Not to conquer, but to share in the view

Pulled by a false inertia
Pushed out by circumstance
Pistol firing at my feet
That's coercing me to dance

Yet I look for a bigger bang
than the kind I'm sorry to know
Here I am, first foot of the climb
Watch me go

Lover, can you help me?
I'm a child lost in the woods
A lit path eludes me
and I think...

You're a mountain that I'd like to climb
Not to conquer, but to share in the view
You're a bonfire and I'm gathered ‘round you
Set this old black heart inertia aflame

Send it away...

You're a mountain that I'd like to climb
Not to conquer, but to share in the view
You're a bonfire and I'm gathered ‘round you
Set this old black heart inertia aflame

Set it aflame, send it away...
