Lyrics

Running across the big, big mountain

Running across a significant challenge or obstacle.

There is no way to go

There is no clear path or solution.

And, how many lives have

Contemplating the number of lives that have ended.

Reached their endings

Reflecting on lives that have come to their natural conclusion.

Silently killed by the snowfall of the ghosts

People silently passing away, likened to a snowfall of ghosts.


Their bodies are clean, they make their music

Deceased individuals maintaining purity, creating their own music from under the influence of rock n' roll.

From under rock n' roll

They derive inspiration from rock n' roll culture.

And, can we confirm their wayward spirit's

Questioning if the departed spirits have a purpose beyond what is conventionally believed about souls.

Are something more than the souls

Exploring the possibility that these spirits are something more than conventional souls.

Of what we're told?

Raising doubts about the accuracy of information received.


Channeling all these age-old questions

Engaging with timeless questions and uncertainties.

Mind knows where it's been

Reflecting on the knowledge gained through experiences.

And, how does it always seem to happen

Questioning the timing of events, specifically how daylight emerges just as nighttime sets in.

That daylight starts just as

Highlighting the cyclical nature of day and night.

Nighttime rushes in?


I don't know what to do without you

Expressing a sense of uncertainty or loss when separated from someone.


Look at the clock it's porcelain doll-face

Observing a clock with a face resembling a porcelain doll, possibly symbolizing the fragility of time.

Is actually made of snow

Revealing that the doll-face is made of snow, adding an element of transience.

And, father awakes to greet the daylight

A father waking up to embrace the new day, driven by a significant purpose.

His great mortal cause has filled

The father's noble cause filling his heart with hope.

This heart with hope
