The Builders And The Butchers

Hellfire Mountain
He was burning through the winter
a little fever down in the cellar left him bleeding from brow
and all the water from the river for the burning couldn't keep him from the
poisoning now
oh he took it so hard on the chin
it was winter (fever) that would do him in
for he went wild as the wolves and ran into the snow covered clouds
so that he could see that the whole world was breaking down
All the wealthy and all the waring they get a ticket
To ride a rail into the underground
All the righteous and all the tilling are celebrating
A time for making such a beautiful sound
They were raised by an old mountain man
Sprouting seeds from the skin of his hand

One day growing a tree so that he could climb up through the clouds
So that they could see that the whole world was breaking (spinning) down
All the mountain miners reaching for the gold and the deeper they will go in that hell fire mountain hole
And the only barter they know is the price of each one of their souls
And the only practice they know rid that old mountain man from his home
(Round and round)
Oh a debt for each one of your sins
Its your own hand that will do you in
And there's no one to save you
When the whole world is breaking down
And you know you'll be spinning
When the whole world is breaking down
