lissie - mountaintop removal lyrics
my darling my dear
i tell you what is wrong
i went to the mountain
but the mountain top was gone
remember those trees
where as kids we dreamed
they tore em down years ago
and built a factory
and when that plant closed
the workers all left town
i read in the paper that
some kids were killed
when it burnt down
now i stare at that field
like circle in the earth
and nothing’ll grow now
that’s not soil
it’s just dirt
and i cant stand it
what’s the use in making something new
if all that made us must be ruined
i cant demand it
i got nothing but
mounting debt and fear
i scratch my head wondering
how we got here
america
american
what are we doing
america
i am american
please can we start again
mountaintop removal
shames our name
darling my dear
i tell you what is right
the moon on the lake
and swimming by its light
darling my dear
i tell you what is wrong
i went to the mountain
but the mountain top was gone
and i cant stand it
what’s the use in making something new
if all that made us must be ruined
i cant demand sh-t
i got nothing
but mounting debt and fear
we scratch our heads
wondering how we got here
america
americans
what are we doing
america
i am american
please can we start again
america
americans
think of your children
america
americans
what th’h-ll are we doin’
and darlin’ my dear
i tell you what is wrong
i went to the mountain
but the mountain top was gone
mountaintop removal
shames our name
