Kasey Chambers Lyrics
"This Mountain"

well a wise man once said to me
if your heart don't break then you wont be free
but i'm as free as a bird flyin out over flying out over the sea

i call out to the wind no one comes to let me in
i hear the thunder the weight on my shoulders
the weight up on my shoulders crushing me

shine down on this mountain
rain down on my face
call out to the river to wash me out to wash me out
of this place

well i wish i was a sailorman
with the wheel of the ship held in my hand
but i don't like the water i'm more like the anchor
i wish i was the anchor in me

sometimes i wish i was a sin so the ones i loved wouldn't let me in
i wouldn't have to try to find the answers
to give 'em all the answers they need

shine down on this mountain
rain down on my face
call out to the river to wash me out to wash me out
of this place

well a wise man once said to me
if your heart don't break then you wont be free
but i'm as free as a bird flyin out over flying out over the sea
