OnOrE — Dust

“DUST” Verse 1 Guess the riddle — Dust under feet Jealous sands Time is just noise Weeds and dunes — whispering steps Words like poison Daedalus, not Icarus Time is dust Laughing aside Chorus Time is dust So it goes Dust I know it’s true Time is dust On the wounds Dust On faces and dates Verse 2 Father to son Mother to daughter “You’re not like me” No one else will offer “I’m stronger than you I’m better than you” Cursed generation Day by day breaking through Rum spreads the tale Like an old disease Two sides of one coin Parents — children — blood and beliefs Bridge We grew up in dust And called it a home Erase all the tracks Still walking alone Final Chorus Time is dust So be it Dust On skin, on truth Time is dust And maybe We’ll be Dust too
