lirik lagu mountaintop removal (stripped down) – lissie
my darling, my dear, i’ll tell you what is wrong
i went to the mountain, but the mountaintop 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 k!lled when it burnt down
now i stare at that field like a circle in the earth
and nothing will grow now, that’s not soil, it’s just dirt
and i can’t stand it, what’s the use in making something new
if all that made us must be ruined?
i can’t demand it, 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?
ooh-whoo-ooh-ooh, ooh-whoo-ooh-ooh
mountaintop removal shames our name
my darling, my dear, i’ll tell you what is right
the moon on the lake and swimming by its light
my darling, my dear, i’ll tell you what is wrong
i went to the mountain, but the mountaintop was gone
and i can’t stand it, what’s the use in making something new
if all that made us must be ruined?
i can’t demand sh-t, i got nothing but mounting debt and fear
we scratch our heads wondering how we got here
america (yeah-e-yeah), americans (yeah-e-yeah)
what are we doing?
america, i am american
please, can we start again?
ooh-whoo-ooh-ooh, ooh-whoo-ooh-ooh
america (yeah-e-yeah), americans (yeah-e-yeah)
think of your children
america (yeah-e-yeah), americans (yeah-e-yeah)
what they’re inheriting
oh, no, now money never lasts that long
oh, now all our money, soon it will be gone
oh, but honey, now your mountain’s gone
the rivers are toxic, and your children are all sick
my darling, my dear, i’ll tell you what is wrong
i went to the mountain, but the mountaintop was gone
mountaintop removal shames our name
