Granitesoul

Verse 1

Stone

Cold grey peaks

Bitter biting winds

We carve our names in granite

Granite

Grip the iron

Iron holds the mountain weight

Our fathers slept where the eagles soar high

Chorus

We come from the mountains of old

Roots in the dark and the cold

We come from the mountains of old

We come from the mountains of old

Heads held high

Iron in our souls

Post-Chorus

Oh

Deep in the earth

Oh

Home in the stone

Verse 2

Dust

Heavy boots

Heavy hearts and heavy hands

Thumping rhythm of the deep mine shaft

Bellows

Forge fire flares

Forge fire burns the black smoke

Breathe the ash

Taste the ore

Tunnels stretch into the belly of the world

Chorus

We come from the mountains of old

Roots in the dark and the cold

We come from the mountains of old

We come from the mountains of old

Heads held high

Iron in our souls

Bridge

Under the ridge

Under the frost

Under the sky

Everything gained

Everything kept

Everything lost

We never bow

We never break

We never run

Chorus

We come from the mountains of old

Roots in the dark and the cold

We come from the mountains of old

We come from the mountains of old

Heads held high

Iron in our souls

Post-Chorus

Oh

Deep in the earth

Oh

Home in the stone

Outro

Back to the ridge

Back to the snow

Back to the old

The mountain knows

The mountain stays

We are the mountain
