Rotting (Cedars of Circumstance)
Slowly
Surely
Inevitably
We gather round to sing perpetual praises
While subtly taking jabs at the merry masters
Their chatter is chaos in our hearts
And in our ears it rings endlessly
Their balance is impeccable
But we possess unbreakable destiny
Dying
Rotting
Finitely
We dissolve into the soil of meager meadows
And evolve into cedars of circumstance
These roots will become our legacy
And proof of their coveted love
The branches will become our sanctity
Reaching worlds beyond these frail bodies
