Bone and Thirst

Tear me down,
Til I'm unknown,
Nothing but bone and thirst.
Leave me bare,
Without a word,
Undiscovered, unversed.
Each to their own,
But your eyes have blown,
Lips are dry.
So on you go...
Take the ground you stole,
We have the sky.
Each to their own,
But we're cold as fire,
Soft as stone.
So on you go...
Take the ground you stole,
Nothing but bone and thirst.

Jagged Boy

A flickering sign appeared
In the shape of a jagged boy,
Who raised his arms high and said,
"Rain will fall."
We'll be free
We'll be free
Danced in the dust 'til night came,
Clouds chalked and choked our feet
Until we swallowed the dying sun -
Sets in me,
Sets in me.
We were free
We were free.

Ribbon

Did you see her running from the tug of winter?
Seeing all the true love smashed on frozen ground.
She, the spine and spires of the morning light
Fled the heap of bones into this desperate night.
~
I have seen the wild swoon of swallows,
I have seen the little sisters play,
I have seen you ribbon through the water,
You are everything I need from this far away.

Nic Evennett UK
Singer-songwriter from Kent, UK.
"Nic Evennett casually takes flight into the kind of
harmonic territory that leaves other songwriters standing."
Tom Robinson, BBC 6 Music.
"Evennett’s voice is a delicate mystery, warm and lustrous, yet fragile and crystalline – a bewitching blend of Kate Bush and Linda Perhacs, surrounded by dolorous, reverb-drenched piano..."
Andee Connors, Pandora
