So sudden, worlds collide
Left the scent of the sweetness behind us
A vision burned into my mind
The streets, they appeared so alive then

It feels like we might suffocate
Under the dirt and the hatred
And can we push it all away?
Will we remain chained to
The war years?

The war years
The war years
The war years

A falcon is circling the sky
Awaking in view of the mountain
The mountain between you and I
Surrounded by rivers of poison

And everything is everywhere (everywhere)
Under the darkness and thunder
Can we push it all away?
Will we be able to escape
The war years?

The war years
The war years
The war years
The war years (war years, the war years)
The war years
The war years (war years, the war years)
The war years
The war years (war years, the war years)
The war years
The war years (war years, the war years)
The war years

(The mountain between you and I)
(Everything is everywhere)
(The mountain between you and I)
(Everything is everywhere)
(This mountain between you and I)
(Everything is everywhere)
(The mountain between you and I)
(Everything is everywhere)
(You and I)
