We dragged it out for too long
Afraid of what we'd become
When no one's watching
When no one's talking
To us
I paid the price for you
As everyone said I would
Now was it worth it
Did I deserve it
Who knows
The earth will love my body
Even if you won't
I'll decompose without your touch and
Grow into an evergreen
I'll be forever green
I still see parts of you here
Although you are years away
And getting farther
It's even harder to hear
Your voice
The earth will love my body
Even if you won't
I'll decompose without your touch and
Grow into an evergreen
I'll be forever green
And the owls will make a home of me
Like you never did
The earth will love my body
Even if you won't
I'll decompose without your touch and
Grow into an evergreen
I'll be forever green
