Decades - The Kindred

Just look how everything can change;

Perspectives, falling through with age

The only constant from the start

Are driving forces deep in heart

Oh, oh no, there is no permanence

Keeping us steady

No moment’s ever the same —

Embrace the shift

To truly see from every side

Invest yourself in patient time

For all mysteries which 'lone confound

Lie answers in collective sound

Oh, oh no, there is no permanence

Keeping us steady

No moment’s ever the same

I’m philosophically evolving

And gaining wisdom by observing everything

Interacting without conscious reactions;

Like the hindrance

Compounding upon

The suffering still chasing

After external contentment

As years pass by

What is is was revised

Years pass by

What was is changed

As years pass by

What is is was revised

As years pass by

What was gives rise

To now

Manifesting existence from within

And pulling all of everything that’s dreamt

To waking state;

Not seeking with childish eyes

Which only once failing beg for closeness

But studying

Inner detail

To make clear

Every resistance to intrinsic flow

Oh, I know now to prize impermanence;

To hold no moment ever the same, oh no

I know now to prize impermanence;

To hold no moment ever the same, oh no

I know now to prize impermanence;

To hold no moment ever the same, oh no

I know now to prize impermanence;

To hold no moment ever the same
