About This Track
'Claimstaker' by Björk is an alternative track from the album 'Utopia', released in 2017. The lyrics cast the speaker as someone staking out a place in the landscape, using song and echo as markers, while drawing precise lines through water and treating the natural world as something bodily taken in. One repeating idea lands in the outro, “This forest is in me”, turning possession into immersion rather than conquest.
"Claimstaker" is a track by Björk, from the album Utopia, released 24th November 2017. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 5 articles about Björk.
About the Artist
Lyrics
I walk through this land Stake a claim With my sense With my bark Mark my nest with song Hear the echo from that cliff I draw laser lines through lake To take physicality Inhale I inhale this physicality This forest is in me This forest is in me I immerse me This is my home
