about

Written whilst deep in the thrall of The Wicker Man and contemplating medieval agrarian socialism.

This is us in a ancient harvest procession 1970s Hammer studios style.

lyrics

Looking toward Albion, through the tales of yore
Calling to better times like the times before
Reeling for meaning high in the dancing trees
The warm drift of the western wind carried here for thee

Let the fires burn higher and return to the ground
All good things the earth will spring leaves us to be found.

During saturnalia hope the wind will change
Everything you know is wrong underneath the spreighs
Through lammastide to harvest home we use them as our own
We're all so proud to sing aloud trusting in the corn

Let the fires burn higher and return to the ground
The seed will flow to bring life o'er, the seasons now to grow

Threading the needle joins the rows. The evenings dying sun's last throes
Spirits need feeding oh to sow and grow, grow.

Sow in the fields and take me back.
Sow in the fields and take me back.
