Are the hills alive?

The hills grow with time

Pushed up by tectonic plates
---c, m
Meantime it comes alive with
---c, m
With flowers, birds and bees
---c, m
As thousands of generations of us
---claude, m
Are born, grow old and die away
---c, m
Then those hills wither in the weather
---c, m
As thousands more human generations
---c, m
Nourish, flourish then perish
---c, m
On these same hills destined to vanish
