[Verse 1]
I can't wake up but look there's the morning
Could try something a little differently
I can't work out what it is that's better
To get out of bed early or not at all
[Pre-Chorus]
Guess I wasn't feeling it
Guess I wasn't feeling it
I can go under
[Chorus]
I see your face, yeah
I see it everywhere
Show me the way 'cause
Getting out is like I'm trying to move a mountain
Trying to move a mountain
I saw your body
So far away from me that
I can't remember letting go
Feels like I'm trying to move a mountain
Trying to move a mountain
[Verse 2]
I just keep moving about
Finding something better
Gone all the way 'round
Ain't got nothing at all
[Pre-Chorus]
Guess I wasn't feeling it
Guess I wasn't feeling it
I just went under
(Letting go feels
Letting go feels like I'm trying to move a mountain
Trying to move a mountain)
[Chorus]
I see your face, yeah
I see it everywhere
Show me the way 'cause
Getting out is like I'm trying to move a mountain
Trying to move a mountain
I saw your body
So far away from me that
I can't remember letting go
Feels like I'm trying to move a mountain
Trying to move a mountain
[Bridge]
I had a bad idea
Still seems so good
'Cause time doesn't heal when I swore it would
Crash a tidal wave onto me
Until you're losing the flavour
Yeah I had a bad idea
Still seems so good
'Cause time doesn't heal when I swore it would
Crash a tidal wave onto me
You're never losing your flavour
[Chorus]
(Letting go feels)
Letting go feels like I'm trying to move a mountain
Trying to move a mountain
I saw your body
So far away from me that
I can't remember letting go
Feels like I'm trying to move a mountain
Trying to move a mountain
[Outro]
I had a bad idea
Still seems so good
'Cause time doesn't heal when I swore it would
Crash a tidal wave onto me
You're never losing your flavour
Move a Mountain was written by Dan Lancaster.
Dan Lancaster released Move a Mountain on Fri Aug 03 2018.
Dan Lancaster shared with Alternative Press:
The song is about trying to remove thoughts from your head but ultimately having little control over it and the frustration with that. Despite the song coming from a darker place, it was a cathartic release writing it.
