Orbs - d**h Is Imminent (However Relative) lyrics

Don't say "start over," it doesn't mean a thing When you face d**h 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 pa**ed 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 hell 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...
