Hot Water Music - I Was On A Mountain Lyrics






I was hanging on by a little thread
Just minutes before I was on a mountain
I screamed "I can see all"
The ground broke from the sound
It was all built on nothing

Caution, the solid ground that you
Are on will slide from under you

And the pretty lights down below
Begged me to
Just let go
To let myself be condemned to start again

Caution, the solid ground that you
Are on will slide from under you
Caution, the solid ground that you
Are on will slide from under you

I opened up my aching hands
I went down like an avalanche
I took with me the things I found
I used them to help slow me down
And start again

Caution, the solid ground that you
Are on will slide from under you
Caution, the solid ground that you
Are on will slide from under you
Caution, the solid ground that you
Are on will slide from under you
Under you

  4. m.... 7....

    Speaking as a 40 year old lol, I saw these guys play when I was 19 at the skate park of Tampa and I've been a fan ever since..

    m.... 7....

    Yeah, I saw them when I was 18 back in 2001 at the Tabernacle in Atlanta with Less Than Jake and Bad Religion. They played "Wayfarer," it hadn't even been released, and the crowd went nuts! Punchline: they were the opener. Amazing band, glad you got to see 'em in their home state during their prime.

  5. I.... ....

    A modern "O Fortuna". Beautiful song in lyrics and in musicality.

    Peace and farewell.

  6. T.... Y....

  8. d.... ....

    ON REPEAT FOR DAYS

  9. R.... ....

    I know it's weird to say this, but the chorus of this song actually kind of reminds me of old Pokémon VHSs I owned and watched as a kid. I don't exactly know why. Maybe the nostalgic feeling of the chords used? Idk but feels man 1:33

    R.... ....

    Hunter Kasper fuck you

    R.... ....

    Chris Fyke lol

  10. N.... ....

    Song can be taken 3 ways.

  12. Y.... ....

    Such a great album.

  13. J.... M....

    some people

  14. l.... ....

    Listen, you don't have to impress anyone. We can all tell you know absolutely nothing about music, but someone in your life obviously listens to you enough to make you feel like some sort of authority on it. I appreciate the courage of taking it to the world wide web, but really this was just sad. It's like when your dad tells you to clean up your He-man figures and you know damn well they're Gi joes. I'm cringing for you.

    l.... ....

    To whom/what are you talking about? If it's beef over someone's personal opinion, DM that shit. If it's about the music, listen and enjoy or keep it moving. If I'm ignorant of the situation, tell me to fuck off. But fuck, let's just listen to this shit and let it hit.

  15. T.... G....

    amazing bassist and guitar layering!

  16. b.... c....

    by a thread

  17. C.... ....

    Billy Idol had in fact a very great influence on punk. But I entirely disagree with that other dude's comment

  18. c.... ....

    one of the best lyrics i´ve ever heard

  19. L.... K....

    think you might be retarded.

  20. f.... h....

    I don't hear anything wrong with this.
    All i hear is caution, the solid ground that you are on will slide from under you. That shit is the fucking truth.

  21. L.... ....

    the most true and honest chorus ever written in the history of music.

  22. v.... ....

    @JaySharp604

    the strange thing u mean is called 'passionate skill'

  23. J.... ....

    WTF?! Am I hearing things, or is this mono? It's like only the right speaker being played through both. Where's Chuck's guitar?!? Fail!!

    If anyone has heard the album before, you know that there's something not right about this video. During the bridge, there's supposed to be two guitars playing two distinctly different versions of the chord. The dominant one is missing... 2:05 is where it starts. It's the melody, and it's missing.

    J.... ....

    JaySharp604 you're hearing things.

  24. H.... ....

    it's something strange about this band.... that makes you like it dunno only my opinion

  25. K.... ....

    great ;)

  26. I.... ....

    this song means a lot to me :)

  27. M.... O....

    one of the best songs in the past decade.

  28. x.... ....

    thanks for posting this song
