On silver mount zion
All buried in ruins
We was dancing the hora
Until we vomited blood
Spinning like crazy
Shoshana was jonesing
The towers had fallen
And the wind called out
My grandfather's name
Let's kill first the banker
With his professional demeanour
Let's televise and broadcast
The raping of kings
Let our crowds be fed on
Teargas and plate-glass
'Cause a people united
Is a wonderful thing
I know that you're dying
And i know i'm unwell
And together we sashay
Thru variations of hell
And as you walk through valleys of fear
The lure of my bed is ever near
Oh, don't be afraid, though the parade
Will not pass our way
It's nobler to never get paid
Than to bank on shit and dismay

A Silver Mt. Zion è un gruppo musicale canadese formatosi a Montreal nel 1999 come offshoot di Godspeed You! Black Emperor. Il nucleo originario era composto da membri del collettivo GY!BE, ma il progetto si è presto ampliato con l'aggiunta di nuovi musicisti, voci e una gamma sonora più ampia. Il loro stile musicale è caratterizzato da un mix di post-rock, folk sperimentale e musica classica, spesso con testi poetici e introspettivi che esplorano temi come la politica, la religione e la natura umana. Tra i brani più rappresentativi si ricordano "The 3rd and the Dying of the Light", "Born into Slums" e "This Is Our Wilderness". A Silver Mt. Zion ha pubblicato diversi album di successo, tra cui "Horses in the Sky" (2001) e "This Is Our Wilderness" (2005).
