lyrics

Well time, she did as time, she does

She passed along her way

And dawn she crept like a frightened girl

Out from the night time’s sway

But in the merry month of May

A solemn fast does lurk

For spring, it sprung as spring, it does

And put the bees to work

[Bridge]

And work they must

And work they shall

For all the things to grow

For if they don’t, as time, she knows

They’d wither on the bough

And what a shame such things would be

No wondrous wine for you and me

No cider too, nor mead nor soup

For us to all make merry

[Verse 2]

So rot, ferment and decompose

So all the things can grow

Or wallow in a drinkless world

And wither on the bough

Oh, what a dusty burden

That nectar and that pollen

Like Atlas with the heavens

On the back of his head

And what if they should falter

And shrug their little shoulders?

Well, time, she’d pass all the same

TELL ME WHY COSMO SHELDRAKE TRULY DOES GIVE OFF "KING OF THE FAES AND FOLKLORE" AS A YT COMMENT SAID AND I WANT TO LIVE IN THE WORLD THAT ALL OF HIS MUSIC RELATES TO???

y'all i'm about to go on a tangent of what this music reminds me of below vvv

This is giving me fantasy forest vibes. Okay, so imagine you're going through the woods as a traveler who came across this part of the world you're going through. You think nothing of it and then BOOM you notice magical and fantasy things happening. Things that normally wouldn't be in realistic woods (pelicans, whales, faes, faries, etc) and it's peaceful.

Each song gives me a different take on the woods which I'll be listing below (NOTE: I haven't listened to all of the songs, so I apologize if one you like isn't on here I'll get around to listening to them all I promise.)

The Moss: The Moss gives off someone telling others about fairytales from the outside world, but with their own take. It was as if they had some kind of otherworldly spin/their own version of it and compared it to how we perceive the fairytales.

Pelicans We: Pelicans We has the "obvious" vibe of pelicans being a clan of birds where they see themselves as not superior, but more like having the most going for them. Their life is simple and it's how they like it.

Axolotl: Axolotl is giving me someone describing a fantasy world in their head that came true like a less extreme Alice in Wonderland. Things don't make sense and that's the beauty in things. It's like standards and basic rules don't apply.

Bathed in Sound: Bathed in Sound reminds me of the movie Song of the Sea (if you haven't watched it I recommend it I love it) with the water theme and the idea that there's a whole other world down in the sea. It's like Seasoire (I forgot how to spell her name I'm sorry-) first had a dream and discovered the wonders of the ocean. Also gives me Jameson Jackson vibes I don't know why. Like, I can see it for some reason.

Birthday Suit: Birthday Suit has that wandering traveler vibe I described before where they come across what they think is normal woods and find that it's far more than that, holding more wonders than you can imagine.

Tardigrade Song: Tardigrade Song talks about sea bears or tardigrades. It's like someone being almost envious about how Tardigrades live, especially since they live for a long time (I think they might be immortal??).

Solar Waltz: Solar Waltz feels like fantasy creatures and beings following a personified time like how people can perceive Mother Nature. In my eyes, Time has all-white clothing and blond hair. I don't know why, but it feels like it to me.

The Fly: The Fly specifically in the beginning gives me folklore vibes (even though every song here does) but with a sort of modern twist on how it's presented. I don't understand why, but it's giving me Henrik Von Schneeplestien vibes I can't explain why.

Come Along: This totally gives me Marvin the Magnificent vibes, but if he was related to folklore and transporting to a fictional world of his own design and honestly, I'm here for it. This was the second Cosmo Sheldrake song I listened to.

The Woods: The Woods is so simple yet so cool even though it has simple and small verses. I just love it. It has that wandering traveler telling a small tale of his trips to the unknown.

Eggs and Soldiers: Cottagecore who wanders around in a slow world that revolves around time. It's like everything is in their head and somehow has INFP vibes. Like the 16Personalities female version of INFP is visiting the woods and this is what is happening in their head. You know what? This is their theme song.

Cosmo Sheldrake just gives me a "wandering traveler who befriended the woods and the beings inside and is seen as a welcome friend who tells songs and tales of the fantasy world he's found." Just his name and his brother's name (Merlin Sheldrake) are immaculate.

I might write something that has these vibes idk. Might name it "The Wonders of My Unknown" or something I'll keep y'all posted.

  Like Atlas with the heavens on the back of his head ...                                            What if they should falter and shrug their little shoulders...?

[trollbreak]

Forever mourning the caution I need lately regarding plot points involving death of any sort bc by jove it’s SUCH a dense seasoned thing sometimes

[saturniidaess]

so rot ferment and decompose so all the things can grow are the only song lyrics that matter to me

[soft-spooks]

moon song

[koravelliumavast]

If you listen to a song with Waltz in the title (or almost any song in 3/4 or 6/8 time) and you cannot picture yourself at a situation looking like this:

Then I’m sorry becuase that’s not a waltz or you just have a poor imagination which in that case then. I’m really sorry because that sucks.

[crimsonfacets]

@idyllicserendipity demonic noble waltz!!

[backagainpodcast]

When you’re just chilling and then you remember o what a dusty burden their nectar and their pollen that gathers like Atlas with the heavens on the back of his head
