lyrics

Poignant skies mark a feeble death,
Shining down, they lay bare the corpse,
Creatures that prowl the night surround,
Mourning not, merely looking for food.

Its flesh rent from bones;
Its innards digested;
Its meat eaten;
Its eyes gouged out.

Left in the forest to rot, the corpse decays.
It leaves a putrid stench that feeds the leaves and ground;
The nutrients soak into the blood-laden earth,
Plants then flourish and grow.

Blood makes the grass grow…

The circle of life repeats:
Life from death, death from life,
An eternal truth that’s hated,
Yet death is an integral part of life.
Humans cannot accept this,
They mourn, attempt to save,
But are destroying all in grief,
Depriving flora and fauna of food.

Overarching shadows mask a death,
Closing around, they hide the corpse.
Human creatures surround the death,
Looking, not for food, but destroying only themselves.
