Into the Earth

You were the first one to see me
The first to believe me
The first one to reach in and find out
There's something there
And I was so unprepared

And now our lives flash before us
A verse then a chorus
A bridge takes us somewhere else
Where do we go from there?
We are so unprepared

I just have one wish
It ends with the roses

There's only one way we're going
And I just hope I go first
So you can bury me under the garden
Feed me back into the earth
For what it's worth

They ask to intercede
And hold dominion over time
Make me listen to their words
Like they directed the divine
I sense the self righteousness
As we are forced to close our eyes
Protest now is just
Pearls before the swine

So much I don't know
But the cynicism ringing true
The sickness got me and
There'S nothing else that I can do
Instead of fantasy, fears or denial
You can just put me in the ground
And plant some flowers all around
So I can live
Inch by inch
Pushing up daisies

There's only one way we're going
And I just hope I go first
So you can bury me under the garden
Feed me back into the earth
For what it's worth

There's only one way we're going
And I just hope I go first
There's only one way we're going
Feed me back into the earth
Back into the earth
