Lyrics:

Forgotten. this morning.
it never gave fair warning.
the flowers in paper,
but I'm still water vapour.
it's okay, you tell me,
but there's nothing to quell me.
afraid of my shadow
so come again tomorrow.

Isn't it glorious?
Sincerely.
Doesn't this moment smell alive?
I saw the whole world made from petals.
I saw the reason we survive.

the clicks of deciding,
the hand that you are guiding
so dearly. So nearly
but I can't see me clearly.
I'm laying here,
you're laying here
waiting for faith to reappear.
til my lifeboat
sails from your throat.
And I hear you say...

Isn't it glorious?
Sincerely.
Doesn't this moment smell alive?
I saw the whole world made from petals.
I found the reason we survive.

Yūgen (Nic Evennett and Classical Glass as Cellar Door)

Let Evening Come

Have you noticed that the stars shine brighter in the darkest settings? There's something sweet in the nuances, and life is not all black and white. Tempting Too is about learning to see the beauty in the unexpected and out of your comfort zone.  I’ve come to learn that sweetness and rough edges can coexist, and that’s often where the adventure begins.

You’re not totally obscure 
Only just enough to make you tempting, oh
You make me wanna pour
A little darkness in my pastels, oh

Make all my baby pinks hot, 
My cherry reds, burgundy
All of my oranges, fiery 
And my blues, evening skies

A little bit of somber ecstasy
A little bit of dangerous security
You got me wishing it would rub off on me
I’m out here thinking that maybe I could be

I could be, 
I could share, 
I could sing with you
I could be, 
I could be, 
I could be,
Tempting too

Some time deep into the night
When there’s no light to guide the eye 
You say “don’t you be scared now”
“The more it’s dark, the better you can see the stars” 

Make all my evenings new, 
Show me hidden opportunities
All of the things I could have never seen
When they were disguised as scary

A little bit of somber ecstasy
A little bit of dangerous security
You got me wishing it would rub off on me
I’m out here thinking that maybe I could be

I could be, 
I could share, 
I could sing with you
I could be, 
I could be, 
I could be,
Tempting too

Oh, don’t you worry now,
I swear there’s more to love, oh
‘cause under the sun, it’s warm
But the moon’s way more fun, oh
No, don’t you worry now, 
It’s just that 
Your colors are a little different inside,
You got a few more teints in between black & white

A little bit of somber ecstasy
A little bit of dangerous security
You got me wishing it would rub off on me
I’m out here thinking that maybe I could be

I could be, 
I could share, 
I could sing with you
I could be, 
I could be, 
I could be,
Tempting too

You’re not totally obscure, 
Only just enough to make you tempting
And I could be, 
I could be, 
I could be, 
Tempting too.

Tempting too

For all the all-consuming high school crushes, for all the handsome strangers you’ll never see again and all the almost-somethings that turned into the perfect love interests in your head. 


To all the boys I've loved before,
It must be a sweet victory
To know you were the reason for
All this longing

What you don't know is,
You were a pretty little vessel
To give life
To my stories

And I don't mean
To hurt your feelings
But in my head
You were so dreamy
And so I guess
I kept you at a distance
So you didn't ruin
Your beauty

To all the boys I've loved before
I guess I did
Because you never asked for anything from me

That way we stayed
A mystery
That way we stayed
A mystery
That I could write myself
and you were the actor
and you played your part brilliantly

To all the boys I've loved before,
I guess I did.
To all the boys I've loved before,
I guess I did.

To all the boys I've loved before,
I guess I did.
To all the boys I've loved before,
I guess I did.

Written and composed by Corinne Caza

A coming-of-age piece about a young adult thinking back on her past relationships. It's a conversation with yourself, that takes a step back and untangles complex feelings. It's a journey of self-reflection and realizations. It showcases a kaleidoscope of nuances of the relationship with yourself & others.This piece depicts the movie-like romantic haze that you get lost in when your mind builds up something that isn't yet a reality.The crooner-like music and melody is reminiscent of classic love songs, but the lyrics lead down an unexpected road that create an ironic contrast.The surprising combination transports the listener into the headspace of the narrator:an innocent ,idealistic, consuming and naive daydream that matured into introspection and realizations.

Lyrics:

If we're not one then let's be water,
If we're not flowing we're not real.
I love your colour when you falter,
You're glowing sapphire in the steel.

Step out your world and drape it round me,
I'll slide my arms through what's undone.
We are the could and would and should be,
Where rivers blush under the sun.
Where rivers blush under the sun.

And be that as it may, still, still...
There's something inexplicable
In finding all of me could be all of you.

Just for a while, don't speak.
Just for a while, don't speak.
Just for a while, don't speak
And listen...

I lost the girl in me but caught her,
Your boy was tired of everyone.
They bound together in the water
And shimmered silver in the sun.

If We're Not One Then Let's Be Water (Nic Evennett and Classical Glass as Cellar Door)

Lyrics:
Mirror, mirror on this wall, help me please, to stand tall and rise above it all...

Pressures on, get your armor on and go to battle with yourself...
Is it me or is it cold in here?
And their words freeze in the air,
And then you are,
Just standing there
Don't let them win,
Don't let them inside here...

It's the tip of the iceberg,
You don't know but you have heard,
I am back to turn some tables over...

Shake off their doubts,
Like they are dust,
And on the ground they turn to rust,
I don't need to try and just start over...
I like my picture in the mirror.
I like my picture in the mirror.
When you're all gone I can see clear...
I like my picture in the mirror, my picture in the mirror.

Now, the branches of this tree,
Are getting stronger now you see,
I won't bow down
And I don't give you closure.
Let my true identity,
Be absolute serenity
No I won't let you try and just take over.

And when I blossom in the Spring,
My petals they will circle things,
That you told me I should keep in shadow...
Let them scatter in day sight - I am there it's my green light
I don't need to try and just change-over

I like my picture in the mirror...
I like my picture in the mirror...
Now you're all gone,
I can see clear...

I like my picture in the mirror...
I like my picture in the mirror...

Turn some tables over,
Shake off their doubts like
They are dust...

Then on the ground...
They turn to rust (help me now to stand tall)
Then on the ground (mirror mirror...)
They turn to rust...

We should like our picture in the mirror... (Mirror, mirror on the wall, help me now to stand tall...)
