the water is always flowing fast
eternity is coming back
and when you see the tide ebb and fall
you'll know it means the end of us all
and when I die
you know
I won't be coming back
don't bury me in the filth, ash and sod
let me rest where I'll make no tracks
the earth is burning and burning fast
the leaves drying and turn to ash
and when your children can't breathe at all
every sign won't seem so small
and when I die
you know
I won't be coming back
don't leave me where the men build their walls
let me be in the unclouded path
and now there's nothing left but to fall
let the sun dry us up and take us all
see there's nothing left to run or catch
my feet are nothing more, my legs won't last
and now all that's left is to drown
let the winds blow hard and knock us down
and there's nothing left to glimpse or gasp
my legs are burning up, my sight can't last
the waves of heat aren't slowing fast
eternity has come at last
when you see creation in its thrall
you'll know we've reached the end of it all
A great compilation. I'm included on it alongside a myriad of great artists. Check them all out, and take a look a Death Root's catalog for some more great stuff. Bishop and Atheist
