1.
Here, but not here I am a shadow on the hills underneath Catch me if you care enough But I'm ready to fall asleep And if you would be so kind As to turn off all of the lights Then that would be alright With me tonight Prophecies fulfilling me The witches and gallows, and dark-laden dreams A candle burns forever and always And all is just as it seems
2.
So carefully I cast my incantations on you Blow out the candles, close the circle My whispers can only be heard when they're lost in the wind And I have tried to make every part of this right Come a little closer to me And I can teach you everything I know I can feel the heavens breathing I don't think that you know who I am Celestial feelings that I've given to you Relight the fire in your eyes And each and every day I know there are whispers in the wind And you have made every part of this feel right Come a little closer to me And you can teach me everything I know Can you feel the heavens breathing? I don't think that you know who I am
3.
Can I, watching as she's opening her eyes To the white? And I might fall asleep before I pressurize Out of my mind Catch the night I promise I'll be okay today Chase the dawn and wander away With the fire in the sky Catch the light I promise you'll be alright tonight Brace the dark and live for a life The kind that never dies Can I fall into the stars with open arms To ignite? And you know you can call me back down to Earth anytime If you try
4.
There's something in waiting here for the sun To catch up and meet you Crossed between ghosts And a harvest moon Lay down your torches and crystalline thorns For a dusting of sage With heads resting on headstones We'll sleep it away The colors you're dreaming are under your skin And right from the heart Where trees are like pages In books of time Wash away emptiness inside your eyes A fall masquerade The light of our alchemy Keeping the dark away And harm it none, do what you will With all of these things that make me feel Sparks in the air rain down from the sky And fall on my scars With flames reaching up To tear at the night Something I saw in their eyes just made me believe In life before dawn We'll stay in this moment And wait for the time to pass on
5.
Eight (Live) 03:47
Eight, you illustrate imagination Of your creation, the enervation And you watch me from up in the atmosphere So far away from here, my dear Was it me that you're looking for? Your windy strings and a broken score Raindrops falling on the floor Your latest lore outside my door Tell me, who's it for? Eight, you indicate exasperation You're explication, the indignation And you watch me from up in the crystal clear The time has come again, I fear, my dear Was it me you were looking for? You left your things in the corridor Empty string falling on the floor Your latest lore outside my door Tell me, who's it for?
6.
She's carving letters in the basement floor And the way the moonlight's dancing through the edges She pours herself a drink into a heart-shaped glass And brings me to life And I can taste it, bitter on her breath Her chemicals reset Drops falling on her dress Sip sweetly, darling, I'll see you in death In the darkness, cloaked in broken wings Silence chases trails of smoke beneath my message "Drink the poison, dear, and meet me in the afterlife. I swear to you that I'll be laying in your arms tonight."
7.
Counting the stars in his emerald eyes Spurring a black horse in its side Let it be spoken, let it be lucid Call me out when he reaches the sun You can catch him on the blink of a stare Where I won't remember the night Walk me down beyond the sight Let me drink in the colors White constellations on the rise Burning holes in the sable sky Let it be a light in his lonely eyes Just after the evening dies
8.
Look to the winter's sun And all the clouds dissipate A frozen lake, a scrying device Wishes and wonders open up my weary eyes I can't let go, these ashes turn to stone I lower my defenses when I'm all alone Let me go, frozen and cold The whispers in the dark, ephemeral Over the snow and mountaintops Do I find you, wounded at the throat Red melts white, the hunter's prize But don't you leave on me I can't let go, these ashes turn to stone I lower my defenses when I'm all alone Let me go, frozen and cold The bleeding in your heart, ephemeral Tell me, would you carry the weight of the world? Or would you let it fall on me Bury me beneath the shallow dirt? I can't let go, these ashes turn to stone I lower my defenses when I'm all alone Let me go The pain and when it starts, ephemeral
9.
Sometimes, she paints the lights in the sky Black magic captivates me, I'm alive Glistening eyes like crystal and ice Lips revelate the names of the night And all of the times they spent whispering mine Crescents catching the moon just right Her words washing over me Like waterfalls, and I believe In her blessèd subtleties A servant to her reprieve Oh, please carry me Synergy stokes the embers again Candles with stay my frostbitten end And I'm hoping That the tatters of my strength will mend She's weaving my broken ascent And I don't know where I'll begin Oh, please carry me Over waterfalls, and I believe In her blessèd subtleties A servant to her reprieve Oh, please carry me

about

This was my first actual music release, if you wanna call it that. Hills Of Olden was also the first name I had written more than one song under. This live album is very poorly recorded, and showcases my lack of vocal talent at the time, but it still holds a place in my heart regardless.
