about

An ode to all the life that creates our life.

Rim Drafter

lyrics

This fragile skin lives with us
Layers of gold, horizons high

Lend us your breath, that we may thrive
Built by aeons of countless lives

Digging through this gentle crust
Giver of life, eternal youth
fed by light, movement rough
Never still, all in flux

Unseen hands and unseen eyes
Layers built with patience and time

This fragile skin, it lives with us
Built by aeons of endless mouths

Why would you silence this?
Churning force of energy

These empires below our feet
We sacrifice and give our lives

Why would we let this die?
The vital source on which we thrive

Break softly into this soil
With respect in your eyes

Stay strong, dirt farmer
We’ve left you your space

Come back, life giver
Forgive this violent race

Hold for us, this raging river
As our breath escapes

Come back dirt farmer
