I can see them linger here no more
So tired of witnessing this cycle year by year
Plants sprout and crops are reaching out to the sun
I follow petals in the wind
Admiring blooming flowers and leaves return to green
And then it burns
Inferno in the fields
Them bodies turn to ash
Inferno in the fields engulfs the elderly surrendered to senility
And you can soon hear some mystic things say
Such is the trade, old lives we take so that youth can take their place
The fathers and their wives
They fed you well but now it's time to welcome their demise
Their bodies turn to ash
Inferno in the fields
I thank you for upbringing but I will not repay my depts
Have been growing in your shadows and it was all I've ever had
I bid you farewell because now the day has come
I'm kindling you corpses to finally see the sun
Flames arising to the sky
Deadly silence, mourning time
Set ablaze by fires so spry
Old ones must die
Servants of ancestors will laugh in frenzy as they shrill
A burning cure for fatal blight
Old ones must die
Die
Die
They all will die so we can grow and prosper
It's so nice to feel the warmth for the first time
And as month go by next autumn will suck me dry
My dust will fertilize the soil
And shoots will grow
