Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well it seems that I've fallen into a working class trap
Once I was carefree, able to ignore the crap
Now it feels like a dance on my own
A slave to the email and the phone
When will I get back
To my favorite personal path

[Chorus]
Got to get out on the mountain
High above the streets
I've got to get out on the mountain
Where it's just me I've got to please

[Verse 2]
Lately all my dreams have been put on hold
In fact I can barely recall the way they go
But it's odd that I don't feel behind
An unfamiliar peace of mind
And a longing for freshly fallen snow

[Chorus]
Got to get out on the mountain
High above the trees
I've got to get out on the mountain
Where the air's cool bite and the frosty white
Above-this-world views and bluer than blues
Oh, out on the mountain
The sky, the sun, and the breeze
I've got to get out on the mountain
Where it's just me I've got to please

[Break]
Sometimes in my sleep
As I'm swishing between some trees
All my dreams
Return to me

[Verse 3]
Got to find a way to get away and avoid a working class trap
Then I can be carefree, oblivious of the crap
There's a freedom that I can't compare
To a perfect day up there		
I can't wait to get back to a day of making tracks

[Chorus]
I'm gonna get out on the mountain
As soon as it can be
I'm gonna get out on the mountain
Where it's just me I've got to please
