A Glacier Eventually Farts
Chris Christodoulou Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴Nature here is violent, base
I would see asphyxiation, and
Choking, and
Fighting for survival, and
Just rotting away
Of course, there is a lot of misery
The trees here are in misery, and
The birds are in misery I don′t think they- they sing
They just screech in pain
But it is the same misery that is
All around us

It's like a curse
Weighing on an entire landscape
And whoever
Goes too deep into this
Has his share of that curse
It′s a land that God
Has created in anger
Even the- the stars up here in the-
In the sky look like a mess
Taking a close look at what's around us
There is some sort of a harmony
The harmony of
Overwhelming and collective murder
But, when I say this, I say this all
Full of admiration
It is not that I hate it
I love it

I love it very much
But, I love it against my better judgement
