Rhythm of the Roots

[Intro - Atmospheric Synth Pad, Distant Tribal Drum, Rain Ambience] [Verse 1] Moonlight on the willow bark It's a spirit's whisper People feel it everywhere Lift your roots and voices Let the wild things choose us You can feel it in the air [Pre-Chorus] (Oh, oh, it's an old magic) Oh, oh You can feel it in the air (Oh, oh, it's a wild magic) Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh [Verse 2] You can put a bloom upon my grief Oh, sorrow turned to leaf Take my tears, let them Water something new again (Oh, yeah) Oh, I can heal you with a name Feel the spirits call again Round and round we grow Each time I hear you say [Chorus] (This is the Rhythm of the Roots) The Roots Oh, yeah The Rhythm of the Roots (This is the Rhythm of my Fey Blood) My Blood Oh, yeah The Rhythm of my Fey Blood (This is the Rhythm of the Roots) The Roots Oh, yeah The Rhythm of the Roots (This is the Rhythm of my Fey Blood) My Blood Oh, yeah The Rhythm of my Fey Blood [Verse 3] Won't you teach me how the wild things weep? There'll be nothing left to keep Think of me and grow And let the ivy stand (Oh, yeah) [Whistle] I don't want to leave the grove in tears Every season disappears Sing that spell to me No reason to depart [Chorus] (This is the Rhythm of the Roots) The Roots Oh, yeah The Rhythm of the Roots (This is the Rhythm of my Fey Blood) My Blood Oh, yeah The Rhythm of my Fey Blood [Bridge - Slow Tempo, Piano and Vocal, Reverb-Heavy] Spirit and stem and tear... All woven, all here... [Final Chorus - Full Gang Vocal Wall] (This is the Rhythm of the Roots) The Roots Oh, yeah The Rhythm of the Roots (This is the Rhythm of my Fey Blood) My Blood Oh, yeah The Rhythm of my Fey Blood (This is the Rhythm of the Roots) The Roots Oh, yeah The Rhythm of the Roots [Outro - Vocal Fades Into Rain Ambience, Last Drum Hit]
