Wildflowers bloom before you
Breaching the fist of Winter's rule
I know they'll die, so do you
'Cause Winter is long, and Winter's cruel
All of this living
Just to lay our head down
All that is given
Taken back once we've hit the ground
Setting a course for shore
Wishing your boat had better oars
I see your heart is sore
From wondering why life won't give you more
All that's delivered
Seems to never be enough
We shake and we shiver
Through life lived off the cuff
I once was dust, so were you
To dust we'll return once we are through
All of this living
Just to lay our head down
All that is given
Taken back once we've hit the ground
