lyrics

LYRICS:
Father Time does his thing, weaving the beautiful decay
He makes all the seasons change
Watching Mother Earth breathe as she sleeps
And then I heard him hum and sing
Several ancient melodies
that conjure memories from me
As his eyes both beg and plea
“Save some salvation for me
And for your mother, please,
Please!?”

We have always been bodies wrapped in skin
One day this life will end but until then are we meant to suffer
Everything I’ll ever love will die
Everything I’ll ever touch will fade
Found ikigai inside her smile but even that could one day change
Shrouded in mortality
I’m not the king of anything, save some salvation for me

Like fungi we race to decompose the dead matter
Take me through to the days when I’ll think that my days matter
Like fungi we race to decompose the dead matter
Take me through

Then my time gets lost on me
Break down to carbon and feeling
The soul begins to crack and quake
And all my colors spill from me
While Father Time he does his thing
Save some salvation for me
Save some salvation for me!

Like fungi we race to decompose the dead matter
Take me through to the days when I’ll think that my days matter
Like fungi we race to decompose the dead matter
Take me through
