Keeper Of The Ledger

It is a fair and noble arrangement
 This business of life and existence
 Where everything we take from the earth
 Will be taken back and returned
 The face of god has always been disguised
 As the mother, giver, and lover of all life
 But the keeper of the ledger for the cult of nature
 Only concerns that your body returns on time
 Return to the earth
 Pay the price for your existence
 Into the hand of earth's domain
 For there is balance to be maintained
 The count is cold and calculated, the precision is exact
 No one is exempt or unaccounted for
 All that was taken will be taken back
 The gods have always been believed to love
 And care for the quality of our lives
 But the keeper of the ledger for the cult of nature
 Only concerns with quantity of your time
 Return to the earth
 Pay the price for your existence
 Into the hand of earth's domain
 For there is balance to be maintained
 Return to the earth
 Pay the price for your existence
 But in the hand of earth's domain
 For there is balance to be maintained

 We create in the midst of purpose
 To fill our lives with hope and wonder
 But to the keeper of the ledger for the cult of nature
 Your body is just another number

 Return to the earth

 Return to the earth
 Pay the price for your existence
 But in the hand of earth's domain
 For there is balance to be maintained
 It is a fair assumption of our human nature to assume
 That the business of nature is inherently good

 When nature comes collecting
 It doesn't care at all about you
 Nature comes collectin'
 It doesn't care at all to know you
 When nature comes collecting
 It doesn't care to hear your story
 Nature comes collecting
 And only wants you for your body
 Nature is the man after all
 Nature is the mob after all
 Nature is the business after all
 Nature is the cult
