Eventide
Eventide
Once as the grains of existence
Were planted into the grounds
The birds of the truth still
Sang out their shining melodic sounds
But time, the cruel hunter
Polluted the air of the intact world
So the birds were caused to fall
And so the hunter caught'em all
As the young trees of existence
Got their eternal bright knots
The first clean leaves
Jumped into the lightless plots
And time, the cruel hunter
Polluted the area of ones leaf
With bacteria called men
And so the leaf’s decay began
The beautiful light of former times
Is replaced by night and constant crimes
Whatever you strive pulls you into grief
Light and life will leave the leaf
Now all contacts cleave
On earth, our autumn leave
You wanna exploit the light
Too late - it's eventide
As the bacteria did
Their cruel work for time
Suddenly they were not more
Than a worthless coat of grime
Now time, the former hunter
Wants to clean his hunting ground
The bacteria can‘t bout
So the time will wipe'em out...
