killer lines in chorus "walk on a tightrope, fly through the air , promise you'll catch me...till you're not there.

Absolutely gorgeous, Niki. You have such a gift for not only writing beautiful songs, but also arranging and delivering them in a delicate yet powerful way somehow. Stunning!

Wow - this is really beautiful and also hurts to listen to. Great work, Niki.

Undeniably true on a deep level, this really hits me and holds me. The verse already had me hooked but then the chorus swooped in and carried me away. Incredible lyrics and melody matched to move me.

Lots of powerful lyrics/images here Niki! Really nicely executed vocally/guitar-wise too.

This was worth missing a few weeks for. What a song Niki, love that chorus.

Oh Niki, this is lusciously rich in so many different ways - these lyrics, this melody, the patience and tension built in the guitar. Stunning work here, my friend, some of your best yet.

so gorgeous! I could listen to this all day on repeat.  In love with the chorus

missed a few weeks-still hoping to catch up :) but here's week 25

1.Birthday pantomime week 25

we were like a ticking bomb
but we never knew it at the time
beneath the veil the thin veneer
of smiles and cheap red wine
we skirted round the cutting truth 
we flirted o so blind
dressed to impress from the dress up chest
for a birthday pantomime

love is a circus love is a show
all come to wonder
some never know
walk on a tightrope
fly through the air
promise you ll catch me
til youre not there 

we were like a spinning top
so destined for the deepest    fall
we’d dance for days then part our ways
and then return for more
the zing the zip the smile the pinch
our hearts a broken arrow
wrapped up in lies and no surprise
it dragged us to tomorrow

love is a circus love is a show
all come to wonder
all long to know
walk on a tightrope
fly through the air
promise you ll catch me
til youre not there 


we were like a party trick
that never turned out right
but still we d try it night and day
and break into an ugly fight
the size of lies the bright disguise
that smothered every little flame
 and even when some hope would rise
we snuffed it out the quicker

Song note: My hometown is in the midst of extreme heartache and grief. Sometimes, there really aren't words, and coherent phrasing is just... gone. Please listen with care, and if you're a praying type, please pray for Oliver, his family, and their community. 

--

sometimes, you just don't have the words
and anything more would just be for the birds
tragedy hits again
you take it in
and maybe, if you're like me, we pray

i bought flowers at the supermarket today
silly, i'm sure, 'cuz i didn't even know your name yesterday
but i know it now
so i'll sing out
it's the only thing that i've got left to say

i'm sorry this is how it ends
sorry it couldn't have been
sorry ... so inadequate ...

ooooh ooooh

Lord, have mercy on us
Lord, have mercy on us
Lord, have mercy
have mercy
