Rise, rise, rise...
The world, today, was broken, 
So we climbed the crackled tree.
Each branch dipped with the weight of our eyes. 

The sapphire float
Brushed our faces into laughter,
Before dancing to the rhythm of the wind
As the sun set below us. 

Oh, please let me stay,
Let me fully live, curled and still
Where willows do not cry, 
Where we are the forest.

Where we are.

Where We Are The Forest

Morning, 
Clambers, enshrouds, 
Scatters, 
Turns you to clouds.

And so my cold hands
Thank the skies you signed, 
Aren't judged by every word
That I could not find, 
Are coming home. 

Coming home.

Independent singer-songwriter from Kent, UK. 
Little video introduction here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MKMPLBJBK6M

'No Sheet Music' Artist. https://www.nosheetmusic.tv/artists/nic-evennett

"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 and woven into broken-hearted balladry." Andee Connors, Pandora 

"Moving, delicate and introspective. As always, Nic Evennett's voice washes over the listener creating an incubated space I didn't want to leave."
Rapt.
