Description: I started playing guitar a few weeks back to some demo drum tracks, and while I was playing, it made no sense to not record what I was doing. Then it made no sense not to make those recordings into some sort of song. And so Youngling was born.

I started playing guitar a few weeks back to some demo drum tracks, and while I was playing, it made no sense to not record what I was doing. Then it made no sense not to make those recordings into some sort of song. And so Youngling was born.

lyrics

Life begins its struggle anew
A seed that has yet to yearn
Yet to yearn for softened earth
Yet to yearn for the warmth of summer

Life has fallen onto struggle and strife
Onto barren earth that snuffed out all of its light
It has been many moons since one felt so snug and warm
Since dew has graced its withering tendrils

A seed now sprouts in fresh-tilled earth
Its roots running deep towards the core
Through the cracks it raises towards the sun
A seed now sprouting
Alive again

Its foundation crumbles and falls
Under the weight of faltering youth
The rocks pollute what once was pure
And the soil, since tainted
Greases the gears

Life begins its struggle anew
A seed that has begun to yearn

A seed now sprouts in fresh-tilled earth
Its roots running deep towards the core
Through the cracks it raises towards the sun
A seed now sprouting
Alive again
