Everending lyrics - Cursive

We think we want to live forever

It's an unrealistic feat

I don't want to live forever

I can't bear the agony

I don't want to live to outlove everyone

Goddamn — one life is hard enough

All this beauty's everending

Every sunrise you attempt

Every sunset you neglect

They're counting down to finity

Nothing seems so evergreen

When everything is everending

It's that time of year again

Tree's stripped of their elegance

Our skeletons ache in our skins

Seasons passing, as do we

You and me are everending

You and me are everending

You and me are ever —

Trying to make a diamond out of coal

Trying to make a mountain out of mulch

Everybody's drinking heavy

We're in a hurry to be done

The point of all of this eludes us

Like a snowflake on the tongue

We're uniquely on the brink of extinction —

This blip of life is one and done

All this beauty's everending

I try to find significance

In each line that I commit

An exercise in senselessness

Time will scrub our past from us

Memory is everending

In the Winter of our lives

Will we hibernate or fight?

What's the upside to survive

It may be short and ran it's course

Life is rich and everending

Life is rich and everending

Life is rich and ever —

Trying to make a molehill seem more grand

Trying to make a mountain —

It's just sand upon eroding shores

A city bombed and since ignored

A simple dream you can't recall

A glimpse into a crystal ball

You and me, forever everending

A brilliant flash of fantasy

Trying to make this life seem less absurd

Trying to make a mountain out of words
