I've always wondered how the earth was made I've wondered how living people truly came to life I realized that they're one in the same Just as water flows through the earth Blood runs through our veins Just as the earth is covered in dirt and grass We have skin and hair But unlike the surface of the earth Our wounds heal even the ones below the crust Just like the earth we change with time We grow We learn

The Earth
I've always wondered how the earth was made I've wondered how living people truly came to life I realized that they're one in the same Just as water flows through the earth Blood runs through our veins Just as the earth is covered in dirt and grass We have skin and hair But unlike the surface of the earth Our wounds heal even the ones below the crust Just like the earth we change with time We grow We learn
