2022 Autumnal Equinox Day Duration - 12 Hours 10 Mins 47 Secs
The seasons are changing!
Oh, I used to know what it meant to grow,
But the seasons are changing!
I used to reach for the light,
She held me; 'You're mine!' She said.
But I welcome night when the flower falls.
La guillotine has done its thing.
Now I am just a stem, like them --
No halo nor head as I wake from bed.
Beware, beware, I used to scatter seed.
But the seasons are changing!
The seasons are changing!
Yes I welcome night when the flower falls.
She will hold me in cupped hands,
As tears pour from her eyes:
Thus the sun will burn me tomorrow,
While the garden below is buried in snow.
The garden below is buried in snow.
The seasons are changing!
The seasons are changing!
