Rings Of Ages Past

Rings of ages past Rings of ages past Respect the past or we won't last Rings of ages past Rings of ages past Rings of ages past Respect the past or we won't last Rings of ages past Five rings Origins start out as a sprout Innocent in a sense, seed full of doubt Short, small, and strong I guess Grown in the shade of the rest Twelve rings Other's leaves fall thick like snow My sun shined a while ago Photosynthesis struggles to remember this I recall those who fall I made a list Twenty rings Weeping willows hanging low, they so depressed All a sudden I'm over the rest Hey storm, my friend, is that all you got? Sticks and twigs, they start to rot Alone, alone, alone, alone Wake up, wake up, you slumber and rest We are mighty, we are many, let it out your chest Stranded in a place we call home Two rings, six rings, we are not alone Wake up, wake up, you slumber and rest We are mighty, we are many, let it out your chest Stranded in a place we call home Twenty rings, a hundred rings, we are not alone Hear my voice, it's not a choice Empires rise, meet your demise Respect the past or we won't last Can't automate the human race Hear my voice, it's not a choice Empires rise, meet your demise Respect the past or we won't last Can't automate the human race
