I feed the earth
The scavengers have had their fill
And I feed the earth
In a thousand years, when we are found
They wonder who we were
The marks I bear upon my bones
Tell of nothing but my death
No one will ever (not a soul will)
Know how life goes on
As I feed the earth
The threads woven between all things (webs are woven)
Form a magnificent web
These strands, like delicate morning dew (will)
At the face of the rising sun (soon)
Never last as long as a memory
I will feed the earth
I will feed the earth
For one thousand thousand thousand days
I am sinking deep into the earth
In time, every web-bound thread will break
But the web will always last
I will sink into the earth
I will be a grain of dust
On the wind
I will
I will join the water's flow
I will watch the valley carve
Into land
In time every web-bound thread will break down
In time every wind-swept stone becomes sand
In time everyone and everything is
In time I am all and all will be
Aligned
