Auntie Earth

Now as our poor young lungs deflate, I'll admit I've gotten older

Mellowed out, chatting up those I used to hate

The feeling that we're lost will always fade

I present no explanation

Can't expect our tired patience to satiate for long

And therein lies a truth we can sip when we want

Disciples of the flow we can float anywhere

If ever there's a drought I've listed the puddles proven to better coax

The divine out from within

Remember there's more road, and places to go

And patterns to contemplate, more people to fornicate

And remember there's a lot of good omens supplying

The proof that our life is the best joke ever told

Remember it's a joke, and leave it alone

Let go and try to be always abiding

Remember if there's one good reason for dying

The sweet silver lining

Through you she lives on

And therein lies a coast we can see through the fog

An island in our thoughts can be heaven on earth

I swear to god if I haven't wandered all over then I haven't done

Something that's worth telling at all

After the hell that you've been through, what could I even say?

Our Auntie Earth will take us in

She awaits our battered shells

I'll try to lay as close as I can to you

But while we're breathing I should tell you

From the depths of the Void I will love you for your growing crows feet

And fully adore the contradictions that we live

As all I can give
