Echo (feat. Nic Evennett)

After collaborating with the amazing Nic Evennett before on ‘Feel the burn’, I knew that one day I just had to work with her again. So I wrote this for her one Sunday afternoon - and luckily enough, she liked it! Her voice and her lyrics are just perfect and have turned my original idea into something so, so much better. You can find Nic at https://soundcloud.com/wingless-night Her lyrics are shown below: I'm glass and light, And silver edged, And guzzle up the secrets Once you close the door. The wrong and right, And things alleged, Do not escape me; Please don't make me Tell you more. Yet here I am - Your tangled hair, And nothing but the greenest green And truest true. A monogram Of smoke and glare Is sewn under a face serene And grown into. Ohhh, your echo will follow you Ohh, your echo will follow you. The shards of my mind And drying lips Are scattered in the soil Under a moon of gold. That's humankind That you eclipse; The empty words Confuse the birds And leave them cold. But holy, holy Waters creep, They drink my cries, And sink my lives Into the blue. You follow slowly Into the deep And see your eyes And all the lies Look back at you.
