im too sensitive for you
never made it through the walls youve put up
im too sensitive for you
just tell me the truth, though it may hurt me

let me make an educated guess
i know youre worth the stress
i wanna hear your call
let me know what you think would be best
dont think i pass the test
but that wont stop the fall

im too sensitive for you
never made it through the walls youve put up
im too sensitive for you
just tell me the truth, though it may hurt me

meet me in the lobby treat me like a hobby
stay or you can drop me
either way im at your mercy
reciprocate or hurt me
what you choose deserving
left alone im worthy 
bite your hand as if it serves me

im too sensitive for you
never made it through the walls youve put up
im too sensitive for you
just tell me the truth, though it may hurt me

Matthew 18:21-22  New International Version
The Parable of the Unmerciful Servant
21 Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?”
22 Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times”

70 Times (Matthew 18:22)

Fresh Fave 378. Review below. 

"This is kippers for breakfast, toe curling wonder, zest on the tongue, salt in the wind, tequila burn in the chest good. I just felt Bananrama It’s Not What You Do It’s the Way That You Do It. I smell some Kate Bush influences too. Damn, I listened to the first 42 seconds over and over again. From the wondrous simplicity of the bass, the toms and the vocals “can you hear my heartbeat”. We enter the weirdness from there, nice weirdness, like deep fried mars bars, weaving a musical batter, turning your brain into a crispy exterior whilst melting your mind into a warm delightful goo on the inside."

We're going through some strange wild, 
We're crawling on our hands and our feet,
And they're coming for us!
Oooo, can you hear my heartbeat?

Engines sulking, suits sleep-walking, 
Where were you while I was talking?
Pockets fatten, flowers flatten, 
What's the worst thing that could happen?

Chorus. 

Kind's in hiding, love's deciding, 
Careful there, your mask is sliding. 
Words have seeded, most unneeded, 
I will weed if weeding's needed. 

Chorus.

Strange Wild

Chill out jazzy summer track with my beloved collabrother, floating on warm blood streams and cold drinks. Hilario spiced up this tune deliciously with some smooth piano and tasty guitar parts.

Joe Hill, Swedish emigrant, songwriter, working class hero, was the inspiration behind this song.

A poll released on August 16th found that nearly half of Americans who support Biden plan to vote by mail rather than in person on election day, compared with just one in ten backers of Trump.

Big thank you to https://soundcloud.com/jonathan_beckenstein for his beautiful raw playing that takes this song from its humble ‘rural’ beginnings into big ‘city’ overdrive. And to Yaron Engler for his deft drum programming.

No letter in the post for Joe
No letter in the post for Joe
Where’s that vote
In an envelope
No letter in the post for Joe

He needs that letter to make things better 
Why’s it so damn slow
Don’t stop clapping
Until it happens
No  letter in the post for Joe  
      
Click, snap, a letter box flap
Tell me yes or no? 
If that my vote
In an envelope
That’s all I need to know
Or I tell you Joe might blow

the last time

i say i’m cold
so you hold me
but  you told me
(don’t you look back)
that was the last time
no more weakness in you.

so
i held 
the tiny violin up
and
i played 
our sad song
for the last time

but you kissed me
so passionately
for the first time
is that how 
you start 
your goodbyes?

o i was surprised
i felt weak in the knees
(did you find time
to practice?)

o i was surprised
in the weakness in me
weakness in me
 
i thought i was dead
but look i’m alive
how is it we 
kiss like that
for the first time?

o i was surprised
i thought i was dead
that i’d put it to bed
all my jealousy gone
and my life up ahead
a life
without you.

cos you announced to the world
this was my girl:
no longer.
no longer.

she’ll find her way
and I’ll go mine
we’ll find happiness 
in a different light

and so
in front of you all
i’ll kiss her like i did
the first time
for the last time.


will she surrender?
will she remember?
will she surrender?

will she remember  
how I wanted 
to keep her 
all 
for 
my self?
 

let us kiss 
for the last time
put our cigarettes out
dance our way in the dark
to forever

the glow of lights 
in the distance
and we stumble 
to the car
and here we part
to show the world
we don’t make same mistakes
forever
we won’t
we won’t
we won’t
make out
like the 
last time.

we won’t
we want

'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.
