lyrics

Has the funnel weaver moved from the mouth of its den?
The air stays cool in the mornings, the sun stays low but rises.

After observing the rhythms of life around us,
Is there any reason to fear change?
Impermanence lending substrate to meaning
A celebration of holding on, then letting go

Filling and emptying
Lungs and stomachs
Waking from slumber
To be met with the night again

Born to this world
Then enshrouded by womb once more
Waking from slumber
Met with the night all at once

After observing the rhythms and passage of shadows,
Is there any reason to fear change?
Has the cat bared its young? have they opened their eyes?
The grass is dried from spring and drought
It catches in fur and moves inside

Patterns which seem arbitrary
Yet arise from necessity
They want to see their mother
They hear her movements in the brush

First moments of life among rose thorns
She feeds them til they can see and hunt
And teaches them with a crippled locust
While the spider still sits in its home by the window
Impermanent
