mountain
M. Byrd Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nothing ever seems on time,
There is no way you can hold it in
You will know it when it's right
It's a walk in the dark
A stretching of time
A color of hope
Is true that you're hiding?
Were you hypnotized?
Because all that ties you to the grid
In the end will keep you alive
It's a walk in the dark
A stretching of time
A color of hope
A song in your mind
A walk in the dark
A stretching of time
A color of hope
A song in your mind it's real,
The spell is broken
The lyrics to M. Byrd's song “Mountain” relay a message about seeing things differently in life. The song's opening lines suggest that if you feel as if you are lost in a never-ending cycle, with things never happening at the right time, it is difficult to maintain faith in a positive outcome. However, the singer encourages that when the moment it's right, you will know it. Life has different shades and colours, and regardless of the darkness, it's possible to find hope, which is represented symbolically in the lyrics like a “color of hope.”
The lyrics proceed to question the listener, asking if they are hiding or hypnotized by their limited way of thinking. The verse encourages breaking free from society's limitations, as they will ultimately keep you alive. The song's message is an encouragement to move away from negative thinking and instead embrace life's uncertainty with a more positive outlook, despite the shadows and dark moments. Ultimately, the spell of negative thinking is broken, and there is hope in life.
