"The Mountain" was written after a dream Dave had... He was standing on a mountain, trying to catch an eagle, but he couldn't... When he woke up, he realized -- and, if you know Dave Carter's work, this isn't a stretch -- that the eagle was "grace", a thing he was trying to obtain... But the mountain beneath him was true grace, that upon which every single person stands. No path, no alteration, no amount of building or destruction or preaching will bring you closer to something fundamental to us all.
