My sparkle having ochred, dried brittle and vanished underfoot
I hide beneath the eiderdown stirring only to fan the embers of the soot
Saying said and doing done
Now is the silence and I hide beneath the snow
Now Is The Silence

Song of Goodbye
October 24th, 2009 · Evermine, Lyrics
I never said a word
Not even under my breath
I didn’t even think it
I don’t know what you’ve heard
I know the rumours abound
The wind spreads them around
But I swear I’m not cheating
I wouldn’t even know how
To abate your suspicions know
You won’t know if it’s bait ’til they reel in the line
And at the end of the day
Do you want to believe what I say
Or do you just want to sing a song of goodbye
Who Hurts The Most
October 24th, 2009 · Evermine, Lyrics
The valentines we send each other
Year on year are just a cover
Witness to an ever-growing fear
That Cupid who we fed and flourished
Will fall to earth now undernourished
And love’s young dream will fade and disappear
When words we want to hear
Are not enough to keep us near
When we tear the jagged arrows from our hearts
Tender Hearts
October 24th, 2009 · Evermine, Lyrics
There are those with hearts so large
You can enter without knocking
There are those with hearts so large
That you only see the half
There are those with hearts so frail
It could shatter with a touch
There are those with hearts too frail
to live like you and I
With flowers in their eyes
The eyes that bloom with fear
For fear they’ll miss the hour
That leads them to their dreams
Gathering Leaves
October 24th, 2009 · Evermine, Lyrics
Words on the tip of finger
Spread across medium-sliced lines
Sentences hover and linger
Freed from the reason that binds
Gathering leaves, scattering seeds
Hoping that you will find
The flowers that punctuate freedom
The seconds that syncopate time

Give Me Your Wings
October 24th, 2009 · Evermine, Lyrics
With your gossamer heart
Your translucent eyes
Your Rizla thin skin
Your filligree mind
You poor flightless angel
Earthbound by these things
You won’t ever learn how to fly
‘Til you give me your wings
Beauty Lies
October 24th, 2009 · Evermine, Lyrics
From gold to grey
Silk turns to leather
Pride becoming envy
Charm makes way for vanity
Well the weather has worn
Childbirth has torn
Gravity pulled you down to earth by your skin
Beauty lies
Shade
October 24th, 2009 · Evermine, Lyrics
In days when the heat brings a halt to all life
And the sun stretched out over fields of ploughed lines
And clutched to his heart the speechless vines
When the reapers were slayed by the harvest strife
Crushed grass beneath bodies laying crucified
Alone, upstanding in those days of dust and fire
Dragged down by the Earth but refusing to tire
Deafenned by crickets and the cries that they made
I searched for your heart like I searched for shade
Misty Roses
October 24th, 2009 · Evermine, Lyrics
You look to me like Misty Roses
Too soft to touch
You’re too lovely to leave alone
If I could be like misty roses
I’d love you much
You’re too lovely to leave alone
You Can Never Go Home
October 24th, 2009 · Evermine, Lyrics
Spilled out from the nest
Of your feathery throne
From one summer’s dream
To a winter unknown
Burning the bridges
That your heart trails behind
When you leave you can never go home
