Black Mountain (part Three) Lyrics - Pinhead Gunpowder

Lippold wanted "To create a memorial 

Something large enough to walk through 

Like architecture, linear, in pure experience 

Otherwise nonfunctional" 

Like a novel 

Like the story of your life 

Like Dahlberg's garden 

Full of bucolic delights 

So what did it mean 

When Dahlberg changed his mind 

Sweet creeks and leaves 

Changed to serpentine trees + vines 

Like a novel 

"A writer should dig out 

The things that they would not 

Admit to themself" 

That's what Olsen said 

A disillusioned student put it more simply 

"There's not enough character here 

And too much personality"
