On Up The Mountain (Dylan Jakob)

You're old enough to know well The better things are all uphill Bitter songs are never sung In the highlands where you belong In the smoke of cannons below Men, they bury each other in rows People come, people go Work in numbers and leave alone There's a light making it's way On up the mountain night and day And you'll get tired and you'll get weak But you won't abandon your masterpiece Off to sleep you'll go Through the halls and opened doors Silver bells swinging low Strung in branches of the unknown Soon morning comes To warm the world and wake you up Night is gone awful fast It ain't wrong to be sad There's a light making it's way On up the mountain night and day And you'll go down and you'll go deep But you won't surrender your masterpiece Oh, here it comes and there it goes The unbearable sound of the earth making men out of boys First you learn and then you'll teach About that bright, bright light Making it's way On up the mountain night and day And you'll get tired and you'll get weak But you won't abandon your masterpiece Now there's a light making it's way On up the mountain night and day And you'll go down and you'll go deep But you won't surrender your masterpiece You won't surrender your masterpiece You will deliver your masterpiece
