Violette Zinnia - Don't Become A Wraith Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
I’ve been dead for almost 80 years,
Detective life is hard and overboiled, I have the patience because I’m a ghost
thousands of cases have been laid to rest and I plan to resolve more
The joy in people’s faces makes me feel alive and I guess I want more?
At times I’m an alluring young woman in black,
When I lose control I become something more
My unresolved case is eating me alive inside, I’m gnawed down to the core
Spirit trapping humans never cease to hunt me
The rarity of my spirit pushes them forward
Their enchanted nets are painful for me and are difficult to slip through
I don’t want to harm humans as a rule,
The spirit trappers block my path and I lose my cool
I shout for them to run and there is a collapse in the star of my spectral core
That’s when I lose my face, my human illusion falls away
I’m a wraith, wraith, wraith (please run away!)

(Chorus)
I’ve taken many forms in my time bound to Earth
A blossoming woman lowered down into the dirt,
Then a lost ghost in agony searching for her worth
Raven investigator, a flower cursed
There are times when I can’t escape
When I lose myself again then I become a Wraith
When I lose myself again then I become a Wraith
(I don’t like to take this shape)
(It’s still me just wait)

(Verse 2)
The process of becoming a wraith the first time is painful and slow
When you can’t find your door to move on for so long,
I guess you just start to lose faith?
As a ghost it's a difficult process to communicate,
If your methods aren’t careful you’ll scare any connection away
When you’re alone and struggling to adjust its harder to keep the wraith away (go away wraith)
Are you full of vengeance, are you starting to prefer the shade?
Are you jealous of the living? does the true flow of time make you want to escape?
Careful that’s the dark path, that’s the call of the wraith
Beware, beware the call of the wraith
You’ll sprout horrific claws and cast illusions as human bait
Find your ghostly purpose, your door will be revealed the way
Trust me please, I know well the struggle of being a wraith
(Wraith stay away)
(away)

(Chorus)
I’ve taken many forms in my time bound to Earth
A blossoming woman lowered down into the dirt,
Then a lost ghost in agony searching for her worth
Raven investigator, a flower cursed
There are times when I can’t escape
When I lose myself again then I become a Wraith
When I lose myself again then I become a Wraith
(I don’t like to take this shape)
(It’s still me just wait)
(Please help, my claws ache)
(I ache!)
(Wraith, wraith, wraith)

Violette Zinnia - A Daughter of My Own Lyrics:

(Chorus)
A daughter to love and teach
Soon a woman on her own, spreading love as far as she can reach
A daughter of my own to call my blood and home
My chance was stolen, fore now I am a vengeful ghost
I missed living my full life, 
it hurts knowing I will never have a daughter of my own
(A daughter of my own)
(A daughter of my own)
(Bone of my bones)

(Verse 1)
I was slain by a mortal strike at night
The grass beneath me was soaked with my pain
Spilled blood and scattered petals, 
In the news Violette Zinnia became my pop culture name
My death wasn’t black and white, my assailant is to this day shrouded in grey
They took so much from me, I’m out of touch and out of phase
I yearn to have a daughter of my own and to exist again on the mortal plane, plain
The true flow of time is revealed as a ghost, and leaves many of us deranged
To me a million years have passed and I have died again and again (and again)
I so badly want to return to life and raise a daughter, for her I would always defend
So this goes out to my best friend, my progeny, my daughter and child light within

(Chorus)
A daughter to love and teach
Soon a woman on her own, spreading love as far as she can reach
A daughter of my own to call my blood and home
My chance was stolen, fore now I am a vengeful ghost
I missed living my full life, 
it hurts knowing I will never have a daughter of my own
(A daughter of my own)
(A daughter of my own)
(Bone of my bones)

(Verse 2)
Hey love, I see you in the face of every woman I meet
I distract myself from agony by drowning myself in unsolved cases
I’ve crushed many villains and quelled hate
My deduction powers are ghostly and awake
Ravens speak her name when I visit my grave,
My daughter would be so proud if she knew the love I’ve spread in my wake
When I envision my living into old age with children of my own my heart aches
I crafted a sculpture of you dear daughter using Ectoplasm as clay
A daughter of my own and bone of my bones
One day I’ll solve my murder, find my door to move on, and truly be okay
(That’s not today)
(Not today)

Violette Zinnia - My Claws Lyrics:

(Hey it's Zinnie)

(Chorus)
I was a living beauty then dead
Now so lost
I'm an undead hero, avenging, now a ghost in a raven suit with claws (with claws)
I'm ephemeral, I'm smoke, hear me talk, admire my claws 
Spectral portal caller, unbound walk
If you're my enemy, face me down, I'm a hawk, hawk, hawk!
I have many gifts but I'll only need one tool
My claws (claws)
These are my claws

(Verse 1)
I spent decades wandering aimlessly through living crowds 
I walked right through your body and gave you chills 
I whispered in your ears and gave you ideas of thrills
A long time had passed before I learned the wheels
This ghostly life is full of valleys and uncharted hills
I learned to phase through objects, touch them, send them flying!
Soon I could morph my form or even float through the sky!
(So high, oh so high)
I could create any item from ghost energy, ectoplasm might!
I want to be left alone, I want my own sky!
I miss everything, I died 
Why did you pluck me? Not ripe
(Why)

(Chorus)
I'm an undead hero, avenging, now a ghost in a raven suit with claws (with claws)
I'm ephemeral, I'm smoke, hear me talk, admire my claws 
Spectral portal caller, unbound walk
If you're my enemy, face me down, I'm a hawk, hawk, hawk!
I have many gifts but I'll only need one tool
My claws (claws)
These are my claws

(Verse 2)
I chose the life of peace but I was chased by Spirit catchers
Gifted humans who hunt ghosts with special nets that leave us defenseless 
Their pursuit was relentless, my words didn't matter
I was harmed and shattered, fearful and getting madder
I saw many other ghosts converted to tatters
I gave in to the vengeance of ghostly chatter
I condensed my ectoplasm and formed claws to defend against them and slash them! (Wraith)
I tore apart their nets and staggered them
I'm Violette Zinnia, here are my flaws
I'm a ghostly investigator, I'll defend myself and others too, with my claws
(My claws)
(My ghost tools)
(My claws)
I'm in the maw

Chorus)
I was a living beauty then dead
Now so lost
I'm an undead hero, avenging, now a ghost in a raven suit with claws (with claws)
I'm ephemeral, I'm smoke, hear me talk, admire my claws 
Spectral portal caller, unbound walk
If you're my enemy, face me down, I'm a hawk, hawk, hawk!
I have many gifts but I'll only need one tool
My claws (claws)
These are my claws

Violette Zinnia - See Through Nibiru Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
When we first met I couldn't believe it
for a fleeting moment, all the answers to love, I could see them
All my impurities in life, burned away I couldn't see them
You're my guide, my lighthouse, my ghost light
I felt so lost when I woke up from death and couldn't see you!
First, both of us flesh and blood, free in life to breeze through
Now I'm separated from you by time and space, ghostly rules
I'm caught and pinned between the afterlife and I'm overcome with missing you
(missing you)
I looked, I looked around and I couldn't see you!
(I couldn't see you)
You said forever and I knew I shouldn't believe you
(I beliiiiieeeeved you!)
I was taken down and now I'm see through!
I walk the corridors of time and space now, I'm just above and beneath you
(I'm see through)

[Chorus]
I don't know when I'll see you again my love, you're Nibiru
my form was warped, I've eaten crow, now I'm feeble
Missing your love, your touch, you seeing me through
I was cut short, I'm lonely, I need you!
Haunted by our happiness, our relationship was unglued
I was struck down and now I'm see through!
I was struck down and now I'm see through!
(Help, I Need you, I'm see through)
(Help, I'm see through)
(I'm see through)
(I'm see through)
(I see you)

[Verse 2]
Your laughter was like a melody it soothes and spells me
Our life and potential family was all stolen away from me
In my mind I can still recreate you faithfully
Sometimes I stew too long in rage and lash out hatefully
I'm a vengeful flower trapped in an astral cage, save me (save me)
I'll never be anyone else's, I'm your lady (baby)
Guess I'm your number one fan and phantom lady
every moment feels like forever I'm cement stuck like pavement
I'll solve my case and that'll be enough payment
I'm sick of hurting and disengaging
My heart is rock, it could cave in
Missing my solid form, my life, my hands
Missing the rooms you and I played in
Waiting for someone to notice me, I'm waving! 
I have faith I can solve my own case, its unwavering!
One day I'll be blessed with spiritual, my gate, I'll be rushing in!
(see you then)
(my man)
I can't wait to see you, you'll enjoy me and I'll enjoy you
I'll be whole again because I'm with you
I'll be whole again, you'll see me and not through me
and I'll see you!
I'll be no longer see through
(See through)

[Chorus]
I don't know when I'll see you again my true love, you're Nibiru
my form was warped, I've eaten crow, now I'm feeble
Missing your love, your touch, you seeing me through
I was cut short, I'm lonely, I need you!
Haunted by our happiness, our relationship was unglued
I was struck down and now I'm see through!
I was struck down and now I'm see through!
(Help, I Need you, I'm see through)
(Help, I'm see through)
(I'm see through)
(I'm see through)
(I'm see through)
(I see you)
You said forever and I knew I shouldn't believe you
(Now I'm see through)

See Through Nibiru

Violette Zinnia - Cupey Lyrics: 

(Chorus)
Hey, I know you aren't like the others 
I know you're gifted, I know you can see me
It feels nice to be noticed by you, you don't flinch and call me creepy
I appeared in your room one night and you were lying beneath me
You called me cute, most say I'm creepy, guess I'm Cupey
(Creepy, cuteeee, Cupey)
(Cupey)
I'm creepy, I'm cute, I'm Cupey!

(Verse 1)
My life was taken away in nineteen forty-six, I was murdered by an unknown
Then I was faced with the River Styx, Charon sensed my burdens and sent me back to Earth to sort through it
I wandered the globe forever trying to connect with people and I really went through it
Most can't see or sense me, I rage and yell but they sleep right through it
It was difficult to touch physical items as a ghost because I was new to it
I practiced my abilities and kept to it, eventually with focus I could hold it
I was lost without my first lover, my heart was torn open
I gave up on being loved, my grave was forever pried open
On chance I meet you and you seemed to notice my glowing! (Notice me)
You reached out your hands for my dress and in your eyes I could see knowing 
You saw me, spiritually, you didn't gasp, you barely breathed! 
I froze in my tracks and turned back to spot you looking right at me (you see me)
(Not through me)
(I knew you could see)

(Chorus)
Hey, I know you aren't like the others 
I know you're gifted, I know you can see me
It feels nice to be noticed by you, you don't flinch and call me creepy
I appeared in your room one night and you were lying beneath me
You called me cute, most say I'm creepy, guess I'm Cupey
(Creepy, cuteeeee, Cupey)
(Cupey)
I'm creepy, I'm cute, I'm Cupey!
(Cupey)
(Humming melodies)

(Verse 2)
I began to visit you ever night at 3am, I'm always awake I'm sleepless 
You're always there waiting when I phase through your wall, I'm your ghostly secret (shhhh)
I get excited when I enter and your eyes focus right on me
I take the shape of my original human form, still a spirit but less haunting 
I put away my Wraith Claws and you say that I'm stunning 
You call me enchanting, entrancing, and honey 
I sit on the edge of your bed and my heart feels funny
You tell me about your day, your thoughts, and I'm happily humming 
I speak to you in echoes spiritual humming
You shower me with praise, call me beautiful, stunning, you never tell me to leave!

(Verse 3)
I never feel like running, I love coming to visit you, before existence was numbing 
I'm developing feelings for you and I feel your heart drumming 
When I concentrate my energy I can feel your touch, hug me
Shower me with love, bug me, see me, love me!
I'm your cutie, not creepy, I'm your Cuepey and I'll visit you every night wherever you are for the rest of your life if you want me
I'm working my case when I'm away but listen for my ghostly melody and you'll know I'm coming!
Goodnight my lovely!
(With love, Violette Zinnia)
(wait for me, my sweet I'm coming)
I'm your cutie, not creepy, I'm your Cupey and I'll visit you every night wherever you are for the rest of your life if you want me
I'm working my case when I'm away but listen for my ghostly melody and you'll know I'm coming!
Goodnight my lovely!
(With love, Violette Zinnia)
(wait for me, my sweet I'm coming)

From its dramatic opening that gave its composer “no peace,” to its sparkling finale, Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto in E minor has been delighting listeners for almost two centuries. To open the USUO Ghost Light Podcast’s tenth season, Jeff and Carol uncover the artistic partnership behind this landmark (and revolutionary) work and consider why it remains a cornerstone of the concerto repertoire.
