Artist/Band: PJ Harvey
Lyrics for Song: The Mountain
Lyrics for Album: White Chalk [2007]



Above the mountain

The mountain

An eagle

Is flying



High above the mountain

An eagle calling down

To the soldier who falters

The soldier on the ground



By the mountain

I feel nothing

For in my own heart

Every tree is broken



The first tree will not blossom

The second will not grow

The third is almost fallen

Since you betrayed me so



Since you


The Mountain

On the 2007 album White Chalk, PJ Harvey delivers "The Mountain," a haunting track that exemplifies her signature blend of folk and art rock. The recording features her distinctive, gravelly vocals layered over sparse instrumentation, creating an atmosphere of introspection and tension. This song reflects Harvey's continued exploration of personal turmoil and emotional vulnerability, characteristic of her work during this period. It stands as a testament to her ability to craft intimate, atmospheric soundscapes that resonate deeply with listeners, maintaining her status as a pivotal figure in alternative music.
