lyrics

my dear
i’ve got a want for meaning
so empty was my beginning
that i've a void to fill

how could i claim personhood
when i'm no good at being personable
all i've got is a stirring that reaches and twists in
the depths of my soul

but oh,
when i'm alone with these beasts
i start to feel like life is sweet
perhaps there's meaning in it for me

because if i have a purpose
then all this suffering’s worth it
i won't just be yearning
i'll be learning and giving
my heart to these creatures so deserving

cuz oh,
when i'm alone with these bugs
i feel my hearts so full of love
to be among them is all i need

to help them be remembered
is my gift to the world
because sooner or later
all things become dust
and are lost in the whirl…
