I sit beneath an orchard
Not a single tree, but the entire field
The rows of vines and bushes swooshing my skin
Like electricity
Cables cut loose to drag across a wet highway
It drips down through the veins of time
The reigns we weigh on the shoulder of life
Loosen as we drop the body
We drop the body
Just leave like leaves
Always changing even when it hurts to let go
Oh the forms we had to take then give so we grow
Painful but necessary we must say goodbye
Time and time again we meet each other then divide
Uuuh meristem
Provide
Uuuh meristem
Lifetimes of lost love
And dead identities
Our guts like bread-crumbs
Leaving a trail to lead us
Back to the knowing
All that we've exchanged
Everything and everyone that we've ever been
All that we'll become
Because we see
And believe that it will be
We'll drop these bodies
We'll drop these bodies
Just leave like leaves
Always changing even when it hurts to let go
Oh the forms we had to take then give so we grow
Painful but necessary we must say goodbye
Time and time again we meet each other then divide
Uuuh meristem
Provide
Uuuh meristem
Divide, oh oooh
Meristem
Provide
