the end of the cicada Lyrics

As the day winds down

The cicada gets prepared to sing its last song

A final goodbye to the world around it

Singing to its hearts content for whoever will listen

Not to return again for another 7 years

Now this may feel like an eternity

To the common folk awaiting its re-arrival

But rest assured the cicada's time will triumph soon again

All I know is for now

I hear the beautiful swelling of the bug populated choir

And I feel everything will be alright

And rest assured to those who are eager for the cicadas return

Just remember this

No love, regardless of how brief it may be, is a waste of time

The wait for the next may feel like an eternity

But just know everything will be alright

Maybe everything will be alright

I don't think everything will be alright

Only time will tell

But until then.
