In Their Words: “‘Mountain’ is about noticing a place in nature that is untouched, that is concerned with higher things… more noble, timeless things. I went camping by myself one weekend in this beautiful little spot in central Virginia. This song was part of that time, and I remember working on the lyrics all weekend while hiking alone and feeling this sense of being a tiny dot, of being inconsequential in the scheme of all things. That gave me peace, and put things in perspective. That’s the only real ‘religion’ that makes sense to me. The mountain being holy.” — Shannon Carey, Luray
