Magenta Mountain (Live at Red Rocks ’22)

Woo!

[Verse 1]
Look past the dying trees, beyond waterless seas
Atop the horizon
Adjacent to the sun
I give my word that it's there, Magenta Mountain
What do you mean, you can't see it?
My life must be a dream, a living fantasy
Disappeared in hot air, Magenta Mountain

[Bridge 1]
I don't believe you
Your eyes deceive you
Better check yourself in
The mirage is creeping outwards from the dream
Can't you see you've gone insane?
Woo, hey!
Yup, woo!

[Verse 2]
I packed my bags and my swag for the road
Followed the bows of the ancient railroads
Need to rendezvous where clouds can't misconstrue
I'm certain it's real, Magenta Mountain
You will say I'm crazy
I will go on my way because it's what I need
I'd cross a thousand seas just to prove I'm not mad
Magenta Mountain
Magenta Mountain

[Bridge 2]
It's you again
Yeah!
I thought I saw a statue blink and a bird with no head
Land on a golden thread
I rub my eyes
What am I saying?
There's nothing there

[Chorus]
Magenta mountain
Magenta mountain
It's my sanctuary that I wanna be chasing every chance I get
Don't wanna be left
Never not making it there

[Verse 3]
What was confusing is now seducing
Imagination is a powerful thing
I see a flash of purple stone envelop me

[Chorus]
Magenta mountain
Magenta mountain
It's my sanctuary that I wanna be chasing every chance I get
Don't wanna be left
Never not making it there

[Verse 4]
I am tectonic
I am megalithic
My spirit runs mauve
I am the mountain of which you dream
I see you now behind the lens looking back at me
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo-doo, ooh yeah
We fell through a dream across clouds of glue
Anamnesis crashing through

[Outro]
Magenta mountain
Magenta mountain
Magenta mountain
Magenta mountain, yeah

Thank you!
