Ross Hollow - New Life Lyrics

New Life has sprung up today
But I don't know how long will stay
Green stems peak from dewy ground
Water slides but makes no sound

Sunlight gleams through the canopy
Dancing, twisting off glowing leaves
The smell of pines and blooming trees

Fill the minds of all who see
New life flutters by
Seeking shelter where it finds
Twigs and branches broken now
Once were peering through the ground

Hold it long and don't lose your grasp
Finding time to sew the grass
Seeds and stems will soon be grown
Grab the plow and move the bones

Fickle time killing all below
Shining Sun brings life from woe
The clock's hands bring dire straits
Sands are mounding adding weight

Branches push through ages past
Breaking shattering molded glass
Rain pours washing dirt away
Puddles build a home to stay

Rusted steel under creeping roots
Old life hidden beneath my boots
Walking, soaked from the rain above
Finding nothing undreamed of

Hold it long and don't lose your grasp
Finding time to sew the grass
Seeds and stems will soon be grown
Grab the plow and move the bones

Boney hands digging in the dirt
Pulling sticks and weeds from earth
Seeds and stems will soon be grown
Grab the plow and move the bones
