Lyrics (unofficial)

[rev. Mar. 8, 2014]

Sounds of the clash can be heard
Echoing up through the years winding streets
Calm isolation to sweet penetration
Driven on from peak to peak

The hermit with hand on his chin
Closes the world from inside a cave
Cloistered from tears, the celibate seers
Can not be great or misbehave
Welcome to the human race

Down from the mountain now
Into the valley of man
Down from the mountain now
Though its been good for you

As the snow starts to fall
Know crystal clear, purer than white
Joy laden air from the peaks of the snare
No longer make footsteps seem light

Ascending stone to the sky
Everything learned building the road
Lofty heights, beckon despite
Approach of the willing threshold
Then there's the threat of the cold

Down from the mountain now
Into the valley of man
Down from the mountain now
Though its been good for you

Walked away from the loneliness
Got the courage now get the rest
Down from the mountain
Though it's been good for you

As the snow starts to fall
Know crystal clear, purer than white
Joy laden air from the peaks of the snare
No longer make footsteps seem light
Driven on from peak to peak

Down from the mountain now
Into the valley of man
Down from the mountain now
Though its been good for you

Walked away from the loneliness
Got the courage now get the rest
Down from the mountain
Though it's been good for you
