From the morning when I rise from my bed
'Til the evening when I lay my head in slumber
Oh, the loss of you does wreck my days
Leaves me with a violent hunger
I will never be free from you
'Til I escape the lion's jaw
There's no welcome in the end
There's no reason to return again
The mountain stood so large
We were humbled
We walked a high and lonely path
The sun beat down on the ground
We looked around us
There were no trees there
We found a creek there
We dipped our feet there
We were alone there
There was still hope there
There had been a great disaster
The hot winds came just after
A tremendous shock was felt
Survivors often tell
The trees all hit the ground
d**h was all around
And not a single lonesome sigh
The example lay before you
You knew what you had to do
You had the pressure in you
To destroy the one who loved you
Your d**h was all around
You were hotter to me than the sun that burned me up the day we went
To Mt. St. Helens
And if this special d**h you gave to me is the prize I get to take home solemnly
And suffer with the thought that
I could never be your friend
I could never come back home again
