Anthrocene

All the fine winds gone\nAnd this sweet world is so much older\nAnimals pull the night around their shoulders\nFlowers fall to their naked knees\nHere I come now, here I come\nI hear you been out there looking for something to love\nThe dark force that shifts at the edge of the tree\nIt’s alright, it’s alright\nWhen you turn so long and lovely, it’s hard to believe\nThat we’re falling now in the name of the Anthrocene\nAll the things we love, we love, we love, we lose\nIt’s our bodies that fall when they try to rise\nAnd I hear you been looking out for something to love\nSit down beside me and I’ll name it for you\nBehold, behold\nThe heaven bound sea\nThe wind cast its shadow and moves for the tree\nBehold the animals and the birds and the sky entire\nI hear you been out there looking for something to set on fire\nThe head bow children fall to their knees\nHumbled in the age of the Anthrocene\nHere they come now, here they come\nAre pulling you away\nThere are powers at play more forceful than we\nCome over here and sit down and say a short prayer\nA prayer to the air, the air that we breathe\nAnd the astonishing rise of the Anthrocene\nCome on now, come on now\nHold your breath while you’re safe\nIt’s a long way back and I’m begging you please\nTo come home now, come home now\nWell, I heard you been out looking for something to love\nClose your eyes, little world\nAnd brace yourself
