lyrics

Her kiss like raindrops on my lips
She gifts me breath
I open my eyes to her smile

Nymph of the Meadows:
You are a beautiful soul

Dissipating clouds like old memories
make space for a blue sky
and the sunshine of a free spirit

the grass is wet under my feet
the last memories of a forgotten storm

She swirls around me like wind
teasing the blades of grass

Did I die?

Nymph of the Meadows:
Silly soul

She giggles and embraces me
under the gaze of the mountains

You never have been more alive

Dance, sing, smile

make a home for yourself
the shadows exposed
will always follow you
make them a home too

A glimpse of hurt in my eyes

Nymph of the Meadows:
I can taste the void on your lips
do not despair
we all flirt with the light by day
yet at night we lie with the wilderness

that is in our nature
we are a part of the land
and the land is a part of us
dragons run through our blood

The cry of a Gyrfalcon followed her voice

and this one of course
his name is Sky
he is your companion
if he chooses you

now come and see

as I walk among lush emerald meadows
and past thundering waterfalls
the force of a flowing river
is like the patience of paper

hidden places and secret gardens
revealing their treasures unto me

lust is the love language of earth
and earth is in your bones
when she fucks the sky
all the wild beasts rejoice and celebrate

At morning dawn
three paths lead me astray

Nymph of the Meadows:
Where will you go?
to source
to desert
or... just life?

will you perpetuate the loop
an echo of souls past
recursive dreams
onto themselves

or will you break it?

there is no place that is all dark

the Gyrfalcon cries out
towards the blue sky
he is calling my name

I am on my way
to the only place I know

wilderness is home
wildness is soul
