Descent

DESCENT

As water flows down, so do I
No wishes now to be on high
With less ambrosia to sup
I am content to just look up

From high to low, no hiatus
Released from this Godlike status
Down here holding a buttercup
I am content to just look up

No more those dizzy heights for me
Forget I was a deity
Soon my preening pride will letup
I am content to just look up

As water flows down, so do I
I am content to just look up
