New World (STREAM ONLY)

about

Spell’s riveting take on Strawbs’ gothic folk masterpiece. Rich mellotron and ghostly harmonies condemn violence in a delicate balance of fragile beauty and disquiet force.

lyrics

NEW WORLD

There’s blood in the dust
Where the city’s heart beats
The children play games
They take from the streets
How can you teach when you’ve so much to learn?

May you turn
In your grave new world

There is hate in your eyes
I have seen it before
Planning destruction
Behind the locked door
Were you the coward who fired the last shot?

May you rot
In your grave
New world

There is death in the air
As the light's growing dim
As those who survive
Sing a desperate hymn
Pray that God grants you one final request

May you rest
In your grave new world
