about

I kid you not: the chord progression for this song came to me in a dream. I saw my hands play it and heard the melody it created, then when I woke up I immediately plucked it out. As a result, this was the first track I wrote for the show.

lyrics

(spoken)
When thou wakest, let love forbid
Sleep his seat on thy eyelid

(sung)
Up and down
Up and down
I will lead them up and down
Up and down
Up and down
I am feared in field and town
Goblin, lead them up and down
