letra de death is imminent (however relative) - orbs

Loading...

don’t say “start over,” it doesn’t mean a thing
when you face death tell me:
what do you see? what do you see?

(do we) gain perspective face to face with loss

if you are just body then it’s true you are no more
but if there’s soul beneath that casing, only now you’re being born
i hoisted your dead weight over my frail but tireless back
i took you to the edge of where i planned to grow a forest
i closed your eyes and dug a hole and made my peace with
the fact that this would be your final earthly placement
and as i watched your fur and muzzle disappear
it’s then that understanding and acceptance replaced my fear

and i didn’t know what to say, but i knew what i had to do

every day i made my way back to that tragic spot
i’d watch the birds and insects traverse your burial plot
one day upon arriving, i found a tiny sprout
he reached up from the ground as if to say “please, just let me out!”

and i didn’t know what to say
but i knew what i had to do

i watched you coming back to me!
what did you see? what did you see?

and as time p-ssed i’d come and watch you grow into a tree
watch you and others flourish where dead friends once used to be
i’d sit under your shade and think about your life before: thirteen years spent by my side, now i sit by you once more

we didn’t have to speak
your presence said everything

please just don’t leave!

can’t stay forever, at least that’s what it seems
fly over tell me what you see

beneath the clouds, above the dirt
no heaven, no h-ll
still here on earth

(eyes) do not deceive
(they) see thousands of trees
(mind) does wonder who
(the) trees used to be
(life) starts over new
(i) have bits of you
(brother) sister see
(truest) friends never leave

a forest made up of onetime companions
when we were young we’d run through woods like these
and now our children are swinging from your branches
and playing in your leaves
dearest friend, you’re still with me…
