Kindred
A Perfect Circle
How do I tell my child
Both inner and actual
Her feline friend was taken?
So how do I tell my child
That her friend was taken
By a selfish fool’s impatience?
A delicate age for such an awful loss and lesson
Momentary, fleeting, and brief
A nature of all connection
Like our mother always said
Life is short, screw the fear, screw the dread
It's so unnecessary
Love them both
Love them now
Don't hold back 'cause
By and by, we'll all be dead and buried
(Dead and buried)
(Dead and buried)
(Dead and buried)
(Dead and buried)
A delicate age for such an awful loss and lesson
Momentary, fleeting, and brief
A nature of all connection
Fear of pain, from loss has us avoiding bridges
Kindred connections
Such wasted time
Cross those bridges
Fear no bridges
Kindred spirits wait
Just beyond, cross those bridges
Fear no bridges
