lyrics

DARK MOUNTAIN

Come on, park your car
let the keys slip into your pocket, now
and walk
Go on, past the walls
let your mind slip away from the crowd
they’re gone

Float off, above the ground
up where silver ships are slinking through the stars
A dot among the clouds
of all the cosmic dust - oh, you know
that’s all you are

There’s nothing here to pin your wishes on
the best is done
Oh, it’s done
Empires rise and fall all the time
yeah, all the time
all the time

Go on, close your eyes
there’s more on in there than on the outside
Come on, close your eyes
you can leave all this broken world
far behind

There’s nothing here to pin your wishes on
the best is done
it’s done
Empires rise and fall all the time
all the time
all the time

about

Great Elk New York

The New Yorker says - “The Brooklyn rockers Great Elk display the control and restraint of a band with deep chemistry, as they sway gracefully between gentle ballads and mid-tempo indie-rock tunes.”

That's cool.
