Fall Into The Earth
Celestial Musings: Embracing our Earthly FateLyrics
I wish I were the earth
I desire to embody the earth
and all that's in between
Everything that exists in the space between
the falling of the stars
The descent of celestial bodies
and the turning of the leaves
And the transformation of foliage
And when the stars awake
When the stars become active
we can go right back to sleep
We can return to a state of slumber
as we fall into the earth
Falling back into the earth
and all the worms
Alongside all the creatures in the soil
And you and I were made
You and I originated
from salt from clay
From minerals and earth
from a fire from the sea
Through a process involving fire and sea
and night from day
Night emerging from day
And all we ever were
All that we have been
and all we'll ever be
And all that we will become
is fodder for the earth
Serves as nourishment for the earth
and all the worms
Alongside the creatures in the soil
And there is nothing more that we can wait for
There is nothing more for us to anticipate
And we don't have a choice as long as we all turn to dust
We lack a choice, destined to become dust
And you and I will wake
You and I will awaken
to a sweet decay
To a gentle decay
at the bottom of the sea
At the ocean floor
silky soft and grey
Smooth, soft, and gray
And if we could only learn
If only we could grasp
how to say these magic words
The ability to express these enchanting words
we could all live like the birds
We might all live freely like birds
like the birds
Similar to the freedom of birds
