Raised by Wolves - Main Theme (OPENING TITLES) by Ben Frost and sung by Mariam Wallentin

You'll find the sci-fi series Raised By Wolves on HBO (Max in the USA, Nordic in Norway). I recommend it highly. It is creative, intriguing, exciting, and gripping. I'm glad to hear that it was renewed for a second season. I will write another post about the actual series soon. The theme song for the series is also haunting and emotionally-gripping and is sung by Mariam Wallentin, a Swedish musician (vocals, percussion, composer) who has done a lot of work in experimental jazz.


The lyrics, which are poetic and beautiful, are as follows: 

[Verse 1]
The door that finally opens
With light flooding in
Spilling out on the floor
The core that never was
Now it will be
The bones of what was there before
Every step, every beat
Every thought, every breath
Everything is longing
Every wind, every wave
Every sky, every cloud
Every grave is longing (2X)
Pulling you from the sky
Just like love will do

[Verse 2]
The door that finally opens
With light flooding in
Spilling out on the floor
The core that nevеr was
Now it will be
The bones of what was thеre before
Every step, every beat
Every thought, every breath
Everything is longing
Every wind, every wave
Every sky, every cloud
Every grave is longing (2X)
Pulling you from the sky
Just like love will do
Pulling you from the ground
Just like love will do
