I like the way you start with the Robert Frost poem and then diverge to make it your own. The subdued guitar under the lyrics is also nice.

Great way to create way to make a story your own from the starting lines to the end. great lyrics

Wow... What a great experience. .. Like an archeologist digging deep. My favorite line... The world is full of heroes burned and villians into statues turned... Brilliant! 😢💔🎶👏🏼 by David Easterling

These lyrics are stunning. Really impactful!

Wow, really powerful song here, Kent. I echo the others with liking the Frost opening as a jumping off point for the rest of the lyrics.

I really enjoyed the lyrics, Kent - particularly the "The world is full of heroes, burned And villains into statues turned". Very powerful.

Whoa, so epic lyrics here. I love the gentle melody, it lends even more power to the emotional content.

I love this -the mood and the repetition really draws the listener close. Its cool to just sit in this space for awhile. 🙌🏼👏🏼❤️

This felt so deliberate and thoughtful. What a refreshing and absorbing piece.

Stunning work Kent! Really digging the disarming simplicity of these thoughtful and intentional rhymes.

First three lines are Robert Frost's. 

*****

Some say the world will end in fire
Some say the world will in ice
From what I've tasted of desire
And while I'm sorry for the funeral pyre

Those who hold with fire pray
The rain will come and douse the flame
Forgetting hardened hearts of man
Who hold the oceans in their hand

Fire's a mind all of it's own
In time it gets out of control
So when it gets too late to halt
It feels like the fire's fault

But when the world will end in ice
Someone has to make a choice
To lay down in a wintered spring
And to take the blame for everything

So walk the world at the end of days
Past histories that leaving made
The world is full of heroes, burned
And villains into statues turned

While we all can learn from time
And say that we would want the ice
In time we are revealed as liars
Everyone would take the fires
