The land that waits

You can live now
In the world called normality
Burn it up as fast as you can
Consume everything in your fire
We’ll need that food then that you gather now
Those resources we store
This will be our lives now
Fat years and lean
Indulge yourself, children
Enjoy it while you can
We will weather the harshest of droughts
The most cruel of seasons
The ground will bake and dry in the sun
And the fruit will freeze and spoil in the air
We move and live in a land unihabited
Where none will follow us

Spread then, all of you
Go as far and wide as you can
I will be here waiting
With the land that waits for us
