Kudzu Lyrics

A gradual

Crawling thing

These blooming tendrils

Creeping onto me

And all the structures

That I loved

Gripping and cracking

Break the walls and fade

Cold

Unyielding

Choke

Unending

I stare toward the place I called home

Overgrown and ruined

The pain I feel here

This loss will stain me

A grave that I share

Shallow and horrid

Shallow and horrid

I feel the death inside me

I see the vines growing

Cold

Unyielding

Choke

Unending

Cold

Unyielding

Choke

Unending

A most dismal prophecy

A premonition of what's to be

And all succumb to its path

Accursed vines of Kudzu

No way to cope with this future—accept

Dilapidation and final rest

Time turns its cruel arms—here to collect

A violation that I won't forget

Cold

Unyielding

Choke

Unending

I stare toward the place I called home

Overgrown and ruined

The pain I feel here

This loss will stain me

A grave that I share

Shallow and horrid

Shallow and horrid
