The Knife

Tomorrow In A Year

AlphabetLyrics.com


An intersection of the plain
By the bank of some great stream
The animal carcasses
And skeletons would be
Entombed
Tomorrow in a year
Tomorrow in a million years
Ages resting in
The rings of a tree.
Fossils in lay in slate
Marking the old forest's edge
I've stood on a mountain
Dividing three regions.
Then it was just a pebble
That I held inside my hand
In between each flap
Of a butterfly's wings,
Countless changes
That have gone on unnoticed
A cricket rubs it's forewings
Together and I am forced
To think of the time that it's taken
To build
Mountains fossils
Larva lava
