lyrics

After wandering off from the construction job, Alber happens upon a glen containing an old shuttle from the Roost -- Jonas' ticket out of this swamp! He tries to shut out the sound of Ric Starling serenading his lifemate, Dove Mourning.

C G Bb
I never bothered planting seeds
I let my garden fill with weeds
Whatever green things should succeed
Who am I to say what life should stay?

My side's littered with debris
Broken lamps that have no key
Novels wrinkled at the leaves
Who am I to say what's vile and gray?

Your half's bursting with new air
Herbs in planters everywhere
It's really that much greener there
And who are we to say what life should wait?

I can't tell what to scatter here
Upon the toxic atmosphere
Leaching through the rooted years
But who am I to say what life's okay?

A starling and a mourning dove
Migrants from the world that was
Share a line, then flutter off
