about

Cry to the mountains.
In despair at the war we wage with ourselves and others , we ask the mountains “what are we fighting for?”

lyrics

Ask the mountains
What are we fighting for?
Ask the mountains
What are we fighting for?

Silent they observe
Nothing can disturb
The solid frame they hold
Frozen time runs cold.

Ask the mountains
What are we fighting for?
Ask the mountains
What are we fighting for?

You sons and daughters
Children of the Moon
Must you re- enter
The darkness of the tomb?

Building walls to hide
Keeps us safe inside
Far from the enemy
That holds the key
To set us free.

Ask the mountains
What are we fighting for?
Ask the mountains
What are we fighting for?

Who was the mad one
Who invented hearts of stone
Who was the wild one
Who has called us far from home?

Seeking all we have lost
Paying with such cost
The Dove escapes us
Love has faded all too soon.

Ask the mountains
What are we fighting for?
Ask the mountains
What are we fighting for?
