I would not speak of the mountain
I would not speak of the mountain
I would not speak of the mountain
Its summit must be inaccessible, but its base accessible
But its base accessible to human beings as nature has made them
It must be unique and it must exist geographically
The gateway to the invisible must be visible
The gateway to the visible must be invisible
The peradam
Translucent as the belly of an insect
Harder than diamond
We will find it, Adam's stone
We will fill our sects with nothing
Turn it through this way and we will climb
It disappears, we will climb
Yet not move a single muscle
For that mountain exists
In the mind of humankind
I would not speak of the mountain
I would not speak of the mountain
I would not not speak of the mountain
I would not sss
I would not speak, sss
The peradam
The peradam
I was leaving with a group of friends
To seek the mountain
Which is the path, joining earth and sky
It must exist somewhere on our planet
And it must be the dwelling of a superior humanity
Just as a drop of mercury by its surface tension
Remains impenetrable to the finger that tries to touch it (touch it, touch it, touch it, touch it)
Come on, we have reached the unknown continent
It is the continent of our desire
A beautiful problem
For the unknown mathematician
One, two, three, five
To and all the philosophers, nine
Dance
I am the mountain
You are the wind
I am the mountain
You are gravity
Let it go, let it go
I am the cock
Growing in the milk of dawn
Drink it, drink it
Drink, drink, drink
First muscle incline
Let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go
Climb, climb, climb
Climb, climb (come on, children)
Climb (climb)
Climb (climb)
Climb (climb)
Climb, climb
Climb, climb
Your mind
I would not speak of the mountain
I would not speak of the mountain
Adam Stone
Turn it
