Skit's Song

skinning them snakes for breakfast
chasing the sun through the wasteland
got a pot of beans on the fire
got the whole sky to admire
hey, where are you going boy
I'm gonna dare that mountain mister
what
that mountain
haven't you heard the stories

Mountain of Ruin
07:13
|
|||
volumes of stone
grown vast in ages
up leads a path
worn out and wasted
ever since time
seekers try climb it
aiming to find
what lies behind it
did we learn
when the stones
and the rocks
came crushing down
mountain of ruin

Ultima Ratio
05:37
|

all your craving efforts
too steep for a simple man
when will it ever be enough
some graves best left untended
should disappear from history
dont wake what slumbers above
our past we tried to bury
too much for a simple grave
the deeds that lead to our fall
at this point bear wittness
and tell it to your better man
dont heed the mountains call
figure this as I lay in dust
all my rocks left to greet the dusk
all your words have no sound no relief
unlike the breeze that does shake the leaves

Nothing Overcomes
05:22
|
|||
crevasse cliff and crag
theres no turning back
nothing overcomes
shaking limb and bone
cling to rock and stone
nothing overcomes
what was ventured
what was gained
at what cost
wheres the path
wheres the way
am I lost
no
blood and tear and sweat
urge me to forg- reflect
nothing overcomes
body soul and mind
fail me as I climb
nothing overcomes
nothing ventured
nothing gained
at what cost
theres no path
theres no way
I am lost
no
now climb
now fall

Burning Skin
03:55
|
|||
body aching
without remorse
husk is tearing
a core set free
duality of essence
now clear to the eye
parts bones from the ashes
left the heart undisguised

Some Grave Up High
05:46
|
|||
crush shaken flesh to stone
oh why wont you die boy
and then I laid my head
on desolate high ground
left it there to rest
lest somebody found
a straw to break it all
what centuries would hold
and make the living travel
and send the dead back home
