Listening Post: Batch 542

'Ruminant Julius Caesar' is both a song about unconscious bias within research methodologies and science of deer social behaviour and organisation, but it's also about the importance of being the kind of human being who's truly open to others' perspectives. With it's staggered drums and driving bass and purposeful piano, it's a Bristol-feeling pastoral piece.

"Lost and Found" is a hauntingly beautiful folk song that seamlessly blends jazz and Latin influences. With evocative guitar lines and introspective lyrics, it explores themes of longing, impermanence, and the search for wisdom and balance. The intricate melodies and soulful harmonies create an atmosphere that lingers long after the music fades, inviting listeners on a journey through the transient nature of life and the quest for wholeness.

[Verse]
Far away no signal
I dream in intervals
Seven circles
In flames and in purples

[Verse 2]
Covenant and crucible
Of longing invincible
To be whole once again
Not in this life that's sure to end

[Chorus]
The clutch of oblivion
Though it waits for me
Welcome back forgotten one
The spotlight is too blinding

[Verse 3]
Beyond the senses lies the path of wisdom
Where knowledge is made known
And the heart once swallowed re-emerges
Nothing more than a beat against a bone

[Verse 4]
Loosen
Tighten
Already open
Equalizers interwoven
Just let go
Easy to say
Cause the thorns still stickin' in my hands and feet

[Verse 5]
Loosen
Tighten
Already open
Equalizers interwoven
Just let go
Easy come
Easy go

[Instrumental]

[Outro]
Loosen
Tighten
Already open
Equalizers interwoven
Just let go
Easy come
Easy gone

Loosen
Tighten
Already open
Equalizers interwoven
Just let go
Easy come
Easy gone

[End]

LYRICS

(Verse)
Shivers runnin' down my spine
Hearts cold in the summertime
When you told me it was over
Baby
You took me under

(Chorus)
If you want it
You got it
Don't need it
Then drop it
Just tell me
Do you really care?
And if you're not about it
Don't even start it
Baby
Just leave me nowhere

(Verse)
You call me like you're used to
To tell me you're in the mood
When you told me it was over
Baby
You took me under

(Chorus)
If you want it
You got it
Don't need it
Then drop it
Just tell me
Do you really care?
And if you're not about it
Don't even start it
Baby
Just leave me nowhere

(Bridge)
Leave me nowhere
Ooh-ooh
Mm
If you want it
You got it
Don't need it
Then drop it
Just tell me
Do you really care?

(Chorus)
If you want it
You got it
Don't need it
Then drop it
Just tell me
Do you really care?
And if you're not about it
Don't even start it
Baby
Just leave me nowhere
Leave me nowhere

Leave Me Nowhere

ohhhhhhhhhhhhh,
hmmmmmmmmmmmm,
A lonely lullaby,
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh,

A lonely lullaby,

lay, lay, 

rest your dream,

ohhhh,

Sprit comes into your head,
says,

Do You Live in the Rain?
hmmmmm,

Do you dwell
Where darkness crys?

ohhhhh,

A lonely lullaby,

A lonely lullaby,

ohhhhhhhhhhhhh,
hmmmmmmmmmmmm,
A lonely lullaby,
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh,

A lonely lullaby,




The lights decay—
Time gets lost
And fades away.


Beneath your bed—
Rain taps soft
Where dreams have bled.

Do you breathe
In thunder’s name?

Drip by drip,


Down haunted halls—
No one knocks,
But someone calls.
A lonely lullaby,

A lonely lullaby,

oh, A lonely lullaby,

Do you sleep

Until the dawn.

Eyes like glass,
Hands of pain—
You exist
But don’t resist.

A lonely lullaby,

A lonely lullaby,

oh, A lonely lullaby,


Rain begins,
You never run.

Tell me now,
Through windowpane—

Do you live
Inside the rain?

A lonely lullaby,

A lonely lullaby,

oh, A lonely lullaby,

A lonely lullaby,

A lonely lullaby,

oh, A lonely lullaby,

A lonely lullaby

THE END OF CHASE

From fjords to fire, from runestones to seafoam…
These are the echoes of a forgotten North.

Each track is a voice rising from the mist — a chant once sung around embers and carved in stone. The raven calls, the waves whisper. The gods remember.
