At the Start (2023)

in the beginning, at the start
of every beat in every heart
every time the Sun appears
breathing in dispels our fears

breathing out returns our gift
CO2 gives such a lift
to all of those who share their lives
so that all that's green survives -

in the beginning, in between
the end keeps coming as we dream
we fall asleep, we disappear
transformation's ever near

falling asleep, we disappear
transformation very near
the end keeps coming as we dream
in the beginning, in between -

praying all that's green survives
for all of those who share their lives
CO2 gives such a lift
breathing out returns our gift

breathing in dispels our fears
every time the Sun appears
with every beat in every heart
in the beginning, at the start...
