Nothing Ever Changes Lyrics
Standing in isolation
roadless wilderness
faded and discarded
the last leaves gone, gone
and let me tell you
nothing ever changes
nothing ever changes
(Repeat 2x)
farewell to my first love
farewell for all time
pleasure for the loving
there they lie eye to eye
nothing ever changes
nothing ever changes
(Repeat 2x)
lay down
let it break down
lay the hidden torture to an end..
roadless wilderness
faded and discarded
the last leaves gone, gone
and let me tell you
nothing ever changes
(Repeat 2x)
farewell for all time
pleasure for the loving
there they lie eye to eye
nothing ever changes
(Repeat 2x)
let it break down
lay the hidden torture to an end..

I heard it for the first time as I was driving up to my grandparent's house, the morning my grandfather had passed away. The beautiful simplicity of the lyrics and the gentle melody both cradled me and my tears. It was one of those moments where time was perceivably slower than in reality. It was so poetically fitting. My grandfather always spoke of our family as "un arbol frondoso", a full & grand tree.
"Standing in isolation roadless wilderness faded and discarded the last leaves gone, gone"
As a child there's so much that you don't understand about the end of life as humans. It was comforting to understand "life goes on" as much as it's it is truly unknown what happens to the deceased. We, the living, are bound to continue onward living.
"lay down let it break down lay the hidden torture to an end..."
It's weird how there are artists that, through their media, move and mold our lives. Not only that they make moments, like the one I was affronted with.... survivable! So if you ever run across this Donna.... Thanx!
