Fire on the Mountain

We sit secure in time-honored traditions made

Never wondering where or when the sickle may come

If we don't seek our knowledge to be greater men

When the rain starts falling gonna drown before we get our feet wet

We build our ivory towers to protect us from the flood

A fleet of vessels made of wood so they won't rust

But can we see the bottom of the bottle when we start to drink?

There's fire on the mountain fire and it's coming our way

Can we pick the pieces up

We're mending Babylon

Tryin' to right the wrong

Can we pick the pieces up

Live learn life love die dust gone

There's fire on the mountain

Can we pick the pieces up

We're mending Babylon

Tryin' to right the wrong

Can we pick the pieces up

Live learn life love die dust gone
