The Trees - Murdoch lyrics

Going to Murdoch's mountain to lay down my thoughts Pa**ing through the valley of stones for my mind has wandered here Barren land of beauty the sun has burnt a scar upon your face Under harvest moons I discovered your ways I shall follow the river of sand to the South See the mountains rise where the sky gives way to Murdoch's might Always feeling brighter your own mysterious life freezes Slipping under the shroud that the mountain now holds Murdoch tempted me here gave me pennies to lend Sang so sweetly of sleep that I couldn't wait to get to the end Black-beaked crow cry a warning of oncoming rain Give your wings to the mountain your body to the starving earth Brighter still the flower of life may grow away from the sun Knowing that with darkness a new light has come Murdoch beckons me now calls me brother not friend Speaks so sadly of life that I can't wait to get to the end Cold winds blow in the face of all hope that is born Eastward comes but the fire of the North will not hold to southern skies Even earthly silence cannot control the spinning wheels of time This is Murdoch's mountain no green hill of life
