Oh my friend, I guess I knew you well Though after all the silence, I found it hard to tell With all the hours in the van In every corner of the land Holy mountain, you made us speak in tongues Your valleys flow with bloodshed, scaring everyone And your shadow blocks the sun Everywhere we try to run Did I make you feel abused? Did I make you feel tired? After all the changes I imposed It'd be worse than death To hear the tempo of your breath And the machines that moved your chest up and down Up and down Lonely mountain, to help you greet the end Cause the cure tempts with numbness just around the bend And all that's left of you, in time Would be a drive safely sign And wrinkled eyes And my friend, I am lucky to have known you And it's not the perfect love that I have shown you But nobody could have ever known to warn you
