titan
Walk 5 feet above the mountain, The landscape remains the same. Walk 5 feet below the ground, The landscape is unchanged. I know my home's eroding, The mountain rise again. I've seen the ocean rising,only the stones remain. I've heard the Titan stirring, I don't know who to blame.  This water tastes like wine. This water tastes like turpentine.  I didn't travel all this way Just to leave a trail of tears behind.  I didn't travel all this way Just to leave my hands and nails behind.  I didn't travel all this way Just to drag a tail behind.  Everybody prays that The rain will shatter the dam. The water will turn the mortar to sand. The engineers have done All they can but we're damned.  Little lost lamb, I've done all I can, The barn door has blown shut, And the brook is rising up.  To move, To breath, We must cherish these. We have these things like feet.  The townies saw a monster But the monster saw a man. The coroner's report found a flower in his hand. Before pitchforks and torches Ferdinand made his last stand.  The farmer dropped his sword And went back to his plow. The children it had frightened Were even more scared now. The minister and mayor told the people to be proud.  And when they went to bed They tossed and turned all night But when the sun came up They never saw the light. And when the worms had finished them. They knew that they were right.  This mountain has A mind of it's own.
