Mountains
Natalie Claro Lyrics

Send me on a
The singer wants to go on a foreign mountain ride to escape from the cruelty and lies they face.

Foreign mountain ride
The singer wants to escape from their problems by going on a foreign mountain ride.

So I can escape all of
Going on a foreign mountain ride will provide the singer with an escape from their problems.

The cruel and lies
The artist is facing cruelty and lies in their life.

But the only way to live a real true life
The artist believes that in order to live an authentic life, they must live up in the mountains or trees.

Is to live up in the mountains
The singer believes that living up in the mountains is a path to living a true life.

Or live up in their trees oh
The singer believes that living up in the trees is also a path to living an authentic life.

You can avoid it as much as you like
Attempting to avoid the problem will not make it go away.

You can eat paper you can eat ice
Trying to cope with the problem in unhealthy ways will not solve it.

But when you push away the fake
When you choose to ignore what's fake, you can see what's real.

You live a small life in a case
Choosing to ignore what's fake results in a limited existence.

Try to be angry as much as you want
Being angry about the situation doesn't change things.

But life didn't change cause you found out
Discovering the truth doesn't necessarily mean your life will change for the better.

That fresh means old and old means fine
New things are not always better than old things.

So you'll throw it out and they'll make more dimes
Even though new things are not necessarily better than old things, people will still throw away perfectly good items to buy new ones.

You are stuck and it's a shame
The artist feels stuck in their current situation.

It's not like signs will make it change
No external changes, such as signs, will alter the artist's situation.

You're life is good
The singer acknowledges that they have a good life.

We can't complain
The singer urges others not to complain about their problems.

But you can send me on a
The artist still desires to go on a foreign mountain ride to escape their problems.

Everyone you know
The artist is referring to everyone they know.

Believes what they hear
People often believe things they hear without questioning it.

Where the sun still shines and birds sing
People often hold onto the idea of a perfect world where things are okay.

But lives are still hurt
Despite the belief in a perfect world, people's lives are still full of pain and suffering.

But I will never leave cause what can you do
The singer acknowledges that they cannot leave the world and its problems behind.

There are people needing pills
The singer is talking about people who need medical help.

Around the world
The people who need medical help exist all around the world.

Ones that help ya while they kill you
Some medications can help alleviate symptoms but also have harmful side effects.

So you'll give more bills
The medical industry profits from selling medications that only treat symptoms instead of curing illnesses.

Stop skipping through the commercials
The singer urges people to take a more critical look at advertisements.

And you'll get the kicks
Advertisers use psychological tricks to persuade people to buy things they don't really need.

Why you got depression from
The artist questions why people experience depression.

A stupid "pain in your neck"
Depression can be caused by something seemingly insignificant.
