about

A little eco-friendly song about the endurance of nature and the fragility of humans.

lyrics

it was winter
the ground was hard
the fence had fallen
to the weeds in the yard
an angry air
claws at the paint
the battered porch swing
the patience of a saint
and the wind whispers
not long now

tree tops tearing
holes in the ceiling
the foundations
got that sinking' feeling
the walls are paper
to the ancient roots
at night the creatures
see what they can loot
and together they sing
not long now

the earth is taking this
house with it when it goes
pull it down into it's fire
till nothing shows
we were here and
we lived a million lives
the last laugh is
no one here survives
