Avalanche

We follow the leads,
but the clues offer nothing of any
so you work and you sleep and you wake
and then you've got to wait there
for an avalanche
to cover you

but you know you gotta scream
to shake the ice on the side
of the mountain free
so scream your lungs raw
till you can't do it anymore
then work and sleep and wake and then you've got to wait there
for an avalanche
to cover you

but you know you gotta scream
to shake the ice on the side
of the mountain free

Have you ever thought of children
is the world here a haven?
are the secrets in the walls here
that i never had been given
i spend half of my lifetime
just trying to work for jesus
i only wish my folks
had told us he didn't really need us. no.

but you know you gotta scream
to shake the ice on the side
of the mountain free
