about

General:
This song is my hymn to the forest. I grew up among old Celtic-Roman forests with ruins of castles and temples hidden in their depths. Why have we forgotten?

Production:
The production is designed to hypnotise you and lure you... deeper...

Lyrics:
The song celebrates the ancient pagan festivals tied to the old woods. Ecstatic abandonment to the wilds, Dionysian atmospheres, and animal bodies converge in this song. If you want to be a fancy literary person, you may read some deeper message about nature in between the lines. And obviously, it is sexy.

Codex Crystals:
This Artifact mixes many Elementals around an E5 & E8 basis (the darker wilderness). We can find some lovely E12 ('there is no fantasy') confusing the entire scene into something hallucinogenic.

lyrics

[Verse 1]
The forest never goes
Deep we hum, and time slows
Odin's statue a-awakes
My mind, your mind he takes
Drunk on forest fruits
Dissolving in these woods

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Growing growling
Wolven howling
Vines reaching inside
Swallow your pride

[Chorus 1]
There is no fantasy
Between you and me
'Round, 'round our heads
Bound by magic threads
No illusion of control
The woods make us whole

[Post-Chorus 1]
Ooo, ooo
Clap, clap, clap, clap
Slowly leaking sap
From the tree
In you and me
You have found my Ice Trap
Trap, trap, trap, trap

[Verse 2]
The swelling overgrows
Seeping drum, reaching lows
Odin's bringing sweet a-aches
My sword, your hold he shapes
Feeling with the roots
Time goes faster and faster in these woods

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Growing growling
Wolven howling
Vines reaching inside
Swallow my pride

[Chorus 2]
There is no fantasy
Between you and me
'Round, 'round our heads
Bound by magic threads
No illusion of control
The woods make us whole

[Post-Chorus 2]
Ooo, ooo
Clap, clap, clap, clap
Slowly leaking sap
From the tree
In you and me
You have found my Ice Trap
Ooo! Ooo! Ooo! Ooo!

[Bridge]
We never want to leave this trance...
Feverishly slow we dance...
In the dark, a hand gets lost
In a whisper, two spells tossed
Mushroom potion in my mouth
You bend a little further south
Back against the trunk (Hot!)
Fingers in soil sunk
As our hearts pump blood
Into each other...
We flood

Sap, sap comes from the tree

[Outro]
Come the morning, the light breaks
For every rebirth, the sky rains
Washing away all our stains
Always safe with me in our den
Tomorrow, we're in the woods again
