Testo Into The Marshlands
Testo Into The Marshlands
So falsely are we led into mired existence, entrapped and sinking
In the truest bogs and quicksand of urbanity
But the city lies barren and riddled with disease
No more are we sustained by its lifeless
Concrete and structure and utility
Flee the dying fortress of civilization
Besieged on all sides by wild nature Hope and containment will not be found
In its manicured lawns and cultivated fields
We were weaned from the nourishment
Of nature's breast and abandoned
To the cruel orphanage of modern society
We must return to the womb
We must return to the heart of vitality
Wherein lies the strength
Wherein lies the marrow
The pulsating blood
The pulsating blood
Watch as the mother's breath is exhaled
That sweetest incense, night thoughts of the Earth
Find your path amidst the winding contours
That secret passage in the wild
In the truest bogs and quicksand of urbanity
But the city lies barren and riddled with disease
No more are we sustained by its lifeless
Concrete and structure and utility
Flee the dying fortress of civilization
Besieged on all sides by wild nature Hope and containment will not be found
In its manicured lawns and cultivated fields
We were weaned from the nourishment
Of nature's breast and abandoned
To the cruel orphanage of modern society
We must return to the womb
We must return to the heart of vitality
Wherein lies the strength
Wherein lies the marrow
The pulsating blood
The pulsating blood
Watch as the mother's breath is exhaled
That sweetest incense, night thoughts of the Earth
Find your path amidst the winding contours
That secret passage in the wild
