Story behind the song
This is based on the writings of John Muir
Lyrics
Nature is a good mother, / she clothes her many bairn
With smooth imbricated feathers, / shining jackets and shaggy furs
But toiling on our treadmills, / so morbidly civilized
The seamless beautiful creations / become ferocious in our eyes
Fears vanish, Fears vanish when we’re free
Once we’re fed on stars and freshness
Cares drop like leaves
A bear is made from the same dust / shares the same blue sky
Warmed by sun, heart beating on / as the days go by
His unplanned and boundless life / equals eternity
Yet stingily denied the heav’n / of Christianity
(Chorus)
Death is a kind nurse / she calls her children home
But no red stains of blood remain / on the mountain stone
We act like clocks imbued with dust / and move laboriously
In towns we reel from the effects of / over industry
chorus
