King Gizzard, The Lizard Wizard - Magenta Mountain lyrics

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

I don't believe you
Your eyes deceive you
Better check yourself in
The mirage is creeping outwards
From your dream
Can't you see you've gone insane?

I packed my bags and my swag for the road
Followed the bows of the anciеnt railroads
Need to rendezvous wherе
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

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

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

What was confusing is now seducing
Imagination is a powerful thing
I see a flash of purple stone closing in

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

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

We fell through a dream across clouds of glue
Anamnesis crashing through

Magenta mountain
Magenta mountain
Magenta mountain
Magenta mountain
