The Burial Songtext
von Seeming

To the lighthouse that faithfully whispers the fisherman starboard
To the children whose days number more than every flower in Europe
To the nations who charter their florid colonial highways

To the towers erected by contractors named after kings

God will bury you
Nature will bury you

To the gunmen who guard against all of the starving
God will bury you
Nature will bury you

To the screens and the radios where words turn to weapons
God will bury you
Nature will bury you

To the terrified rich man
God will bury you

To the killers of animals
Nature will bury you

To the worship of justice
The reliance on reason
And the fire in your eyes


God will bury you
Nature will bury you
Time will bury your bones unseen
Total and absolute
Infinite amplitude
′Till all the black is ripe in green

God will bury you
Nature will bury you
Time will bury your bones unseen
Total and absolute
Infinite amplitude
'Till all the black is ripe in green

God will bury you
Nature will bury you
Time will bury your bones unseen
Total and absolute
Infinite amplitude
′Till all the black is ripe in green


And I'm not angry
I'm not sad
I′m just stating the fact
I′m not angry
I'm not sad
I′m just stating the fact
I'm not angry
I′m not sad
I'm just stating the fact that

God will bury you
Nature will bury you
God will bury you
Nature will bury you
God will bury you
Nature will bury you
God will bury you
Nature will bury you

God will bury you
Nature will bury you
God will bury you
Nature will bury you
God will bury you
Nature will bury you
God will bury you
Nature will bury you
