Banyan Thorns - Fold Me Into The Earth (cover)

I am not made to last in light I bloom in dusk, I feast in blight My hands are roots, my breath is slow Fold me into the earth below Let my bones feed something green Let my sorrow grow unseen Don’t carve a stone, don’t say my name Just leave me where the mushrooms came Fold me down, fold me deep Where silence sows and willows weep I was a song, now I am still Let rot have me, as rot will I kissed the mold, I touched the stain I loved what broke, I drank the rain I whispered thanks to worms and flies For cradling what the light denies “Take this flesh, take this grief…” “Let it break, let it leaf…” “Take this name, take this breath…” “Feed the roots, welcome death…” Fold me down, fold me deep Where silence sows and willows weep I was a song, now I am still Let rot have me, as rot will Fold me down, fold me slow Into the dark where stories grow What I was is what I gave Let me bloom inside the grave All things break. All things bloom Into the dark where stories grow What I was is what I gave Let me bloom inside the grave All things break. All things bloom.
