Purple Mountain Lyrics

Mathew Lee Cothran Purple Mountain

Red white and blue blood and guts
Line the altar of the son of man and I
Line my head with sadness and set off
For distant lands, and leave behind my body
As a rotted offering to be reborn in time

I am speaking through the valium
To a purple mountain caving in around me
And my friends, but everyone is laughing
Tearing holes into the dark to pull an angel through
Against it's will to be reborn in time
