Battle Mountain Lyrics

He said, "Meet me on Battle Mountain."
And I just won't care
"On the summit in the hailstorm"
Well, I won't be there

There'll be no fight
To the death or otherwise
I refuse the game
I will walk away

And the saguaro's shadow
Stretches off like a bullet to the horizin
His will to power calls for murder
But I know that no one wins

There'll be no fight
To the death or otherwise
I refuse the game
I will walk away

And all I can think about
As the world burns down
Is how the flies never had a chance
How everyone dies
And how hope often lies
And come tomorrow
He'll still be standing there
And I still won't care
