Water and Dust

I take comfort in hovering over this page until it bleeds
until the ink consumes and marks me deep

This laughter lingers, it soaks into these walls
Stained paper tearing and peeling off

Everything, everything will change
All our heroes, the strong of us, just water and dust
Everything, everything must fade for now
All of us, everyone, gets lost in the crowd

Like a vapor lifting life fades like atrophy
And we are forgotten like a swell is lost at sea

We are less than smoke, like a dream lost after sleep
Vague intuition breathes, some things remain unseen

Everything, everything will change
All our heroes, the strong of us, just water and dust
Everything, everything must fade for now
All of us, everyone, gets lost in the crowd

"Darling it's okay to grieve, darling it's okay to weep.
I will make all things right in time. In time you'll see."

Try as we might we all lose this life, have you made your peace?
Don't cling to this side, nothing here survives.

Everything, everything will change
All our heroes, the strong of us, just water and dust
Everything, everything must fade for now
All of us, everyone, gets lost
