Lyrics Levellers – Men–An–Tol

Text:

So I find myself among
The brave southwestern hills
Running like a madman on the moor
Let the sweet Atlantic rain

Wash away my youth
The Men-An-Tol shone strangely in the storm

I get the strangest feeling
In the air around
It’s more than just a feeling
A different way of seeing
A different kind of life
Something I believe in

But in amongst the city lights
The feeling’s not so clear
Neon lights and faceless signs
Hide what I hold dear
It’s there to find if you have the mind
And you don’t live in fear of it

I rest amongst what still remains
Lives that passed before
Lightning strikes the top of Zennor Tor
I find myself amazed again
At man’s pathetic score
Years of knowledge wasted and ignored

I get the strangest feeling
In the air around
It’s more than just a feeling
A different way of seeing
A different kind of life
Something I believe in

Here amongst the city lights
The feeling’s not so clear
Faceless towers with neon signs
Hide what I hold dear
It’s there to find if you have the mind
And you don’t live in fear of it

Here amongst the city lights
The feeling’s not so clear
Faceless towers with neon signs
Hide what I hold dear
It’s there to find if you have the mind
And you don’t live in fear of it

A different way of seeing
A different kind of life
Something I believe in
