As for the video, the giant helps people move from an unfertile land to a fertile land, where they do well, build a town, etc. Unfortunately, he also unwittingly provided a way for envious raiders (or some kind of antagonists) to get to the village and torch it. This really upsets the giant, and he falls to the ground in sadness/anger/etc. This opens up a fault line, water flows through it, etc. He gets up, finds some of the friendly folks, and he picks them up to go find a nice place somewhere, trudging through thick vines and the like.

As for the video, the giant helps people move from an unfertile land to a fertile land, where they do well, build a town, etc. Unfortunately, he also unwittingly provided a way for envious raiders (or some kind of antagonists) to get to the village and torch it. This really upsets the giant, and he falls to the ground in sadness/anger/etc. This opens up a fault line, water flows through it, etc. He gets up, finds some of the friendly folks, and he picks them up to go find a nice place somewhere, trudging through thick vines and the like.

the nostalgia is real
I remember when a guy I worked with at Starbucks in 2004-06 in Fresno was super tight with FTM, and he got some advance copies of this song and their album and I was blown away. I was sure they were gonna blow up, and I guess that’s the music business
I'm SO HAPPY that I got to see them in concert before they split. They have to be THE MOST UNDERRATED band of all time. Seeing them with 10 Years (seen them four times) was a bonus. c:
FTM have a unique melodic sound and simultaneous synchronicity. Those things mixed together with the lyrical wordplay its an amazing combination to listen to.

Wondered wtf i was listening the first time I heard this song... listened to it for the 2nd and 3rd time, then listened to the rest of "Fables From a Mayfly" and realized that this is easily one of the best prog rock bands ive ever heard, not that I know too many... xD
