Planets collide
Planets grow high
We are still here, ever alive

Moons wane
Mountain stand, unswayed
We are still here, ever alive

Oceans run deep
Rain plops from the sky
We are still here, ever alive

Night comes
Days go by
We are still here, ever alive

Water overcomes
Fire destroys it all
But we are still here, ever alive

We are still here, ever alive
3…
We are still here, ever alive
2…
We are still here, ever alive
1…

Still, we are still here, breathing and alive.
