Lizzy Kirby - Mt St Helens

You handsome mountain of a man
How still you stand
Lost in the promise of anybody's bed
Dread like stones weigh on your chest
When you were supposed to love me
You let your weathered heart decay
Trapped like Pahto because you're just too afraid
I was fought over but never for
You've been falling in love with a war
I don't fit in your story
So you made a Loowit out of me
You handsome mountain of a woman
Luring us all to your cliffs
Moonlight shines on your melting snow
Stubborn as stone, you tell spring not to grow
I showed love and you destroyed me
You let your weathered heart decay
Trapped like Wy'east because you're just too afraid
I was fought over but never for
You've been falling in love with a war
I don't fit in your story
So you made a Loowit out of me
Rewrote my existence, despite my resistance
I shift my tectonics till I am free
of the panic
Because I fell in love with you
I wanted something I could do
To make up for the loneliness
But this mess is on you
Couldn't stand this kind of lonely
So I fell in love with me
Great, boundless beauty
Loowit is free
