lyrics

Why aren't the old screaming?
Don't they feel their bodies cheat them?
Don't they feel the fickle form of flesh
Struggle, trying to leave them?

Crowded by death on all sides
Why do they expect the future?
Why do so few face age with desire
With wisdom and purpose, fewer?

You will never be young again
And you are closer to death than you've ever been
You will never feel the tightness make its home between your skin

The future never arrives
The present only stagnates
And the meat goes sour before it expires
It’s a human thing, to wait

So many unfinished lives
That dwindle while the body lingers
Drowned in the desert of muscle and sinew
Never finding the fingers

You will never be young again
And you are closer to death than you've ever been
You will never feel the tightness make its home between your skin

As above
So below
More behind
Less to go

My body a bitter seed
I hope the earth chokes
And sprouts a jagged lifeless tree
With a thousand spiders instead of leaves
Time makes failures of us all

From flesh
To bone
To rock
To dust
To nothing

“This tired Promethean drama of revolt, defiance and blasphemy goes on forever”
