Elk Ghost

A real ambient piece. This song is based of a poem I wrote and features as lyrics at the end.
I wanted a Neo Celtic feel. Set in a post apocalyptic world where we've been reset to sticks and stones by nuclear war. The words speak of the thunder (nuclear bombs dropping) and the gods(politicians of the past), with stories of caution being passed down in song.

Lyrics: Elk Ghosts

Here where the elk ghost roam,
We follow where they wander.
Gone are the gods old,
Slain by man made thunder.

In the light the kingdoms fell,
With no one left to ponder.
Why the gods that treat us well,
left us here to squander.

The thunder only brings the snow,
And freezes shadows still.
The ice'd fire of long ago,
Left no blood to spill.

Where the winds of war have blown,
You'll find no warmth or plunder.
Baron lands of long ago,
left with nought but cinder.

The jealous gods of wit and ruin,
Squabbled over land and love.
Now scattered life is strewn,
On the planet that we're of.

Gone is land with borders drawn,
So take your wit and humble.
And follow where the elk ghost roam,
Lead ourselves from crumble.
