Rose Chronicles was the band that my favorite singer, Kristy Thirsk, got her start in. Shiver, while it's a pleasant album that does have several shining moments, isn't as interesting as Happily Ever After in my opinion, but I would still recommend it to any Kristy Thirsk fan if you can manage to find it anywhere. And here are its song lyrics:
Dwelling
Glide (Free Above)
Nothing's Real

Brick and Glue

The Bottle Song

Dwelling
That body's not so beautiful, I know
It's not the highest temple for a god
I understand refuse to freeze and I'm so cold
I'm so cold, oh I'm so
Seem to be dwelling
Seem to be dwelling
I sustain in a frame
I seem to be dwelling
I was a statue in velvet skin you stole
Somebody's arms have wrapped me in a wing
You'll understand if I could freeze
I wouldn't care, I wouldn't care, I wouldn't care, I
Seem to be dwelling
Seem to be dwelling
I sustain in a frame
I seem to be dwelling
Did you know your body's just a cavern for your soul
Souls will drift, the aimlessly adrift dwell on shores
of unrest, where ocean rage will make its nest
I feel strange
Your body's just a cavern for your soul
Where do the lost ones go?
Your body's just a cavern for your soul
Free me from this mortal cage I go
Your body's just a cavern for your soul
Do you feel disengaged like you're dwelling there?

Glide (Free Above)
Angels wallow in this serene - harbour
takes my breath this vivid scene - farther
Crystal kisses of the sun - save me
Soul in bliss to be above
Be above free above
Found forever, from this earth sever
Be above free above
I'll be forever
Silver streams like ribbon - untwine you
It's like a euphoric drug - when it binds you
Lush with boundless treasures of love
Sky is graced by a lily-white dove
Be above free above
Found forever, from this earth sever
Be above free above
I'll be forever
Not frightened by the beauty
of the free above

Nothing's Real
I thought you were gone
I wish I could fall, but into who?
You wish I would crawl back down to you
I might break someone because of you
Nothing's real Nothing's real
(Only pretending, merely remembering)
What I feel, what I feel
Nothing's real
You know you were wrong
But I forgot all the hate, it watered down
I feel safe away but never sound
I might fake someone because of you
Nothing's real Nothing's real
(Only pretending, merely remembering)
What I feel, what I feel
Nothing's real
Nothing's real and I feel sick, oh
nothing's real and I feel sick
I don't know what I'm doing here
I don't even really care
you know I look in your eyes
I don't see any depth
feel like I'm just using you
|
Dierdre
I know you're fond of me
That doesn't mean you have to show me how you feel
I'm told I'm green
but father this is far too real
Someday, I'll lift the dark clouds - Blame
I'll be wishing, wishing you weren't so
This kind of nurturing
You know I wouldn't mind if you had to give it up.
My self-worth sinks
when I'm forced to remember you
Beast, you wash the blood off your hands,
but my life has been more than stained
I'm forever branded
Someday, I'll lift the dark blouds - blame
I'll be wishing, wishing you weren't so
Someday as I've felt you'll feel - shame
and I'll be wishing you weren't so fond of me
|
Brick and Glue
I wish my eyes sealed blind from life
World black and blue with swelling fright
There's only threads of peace and light
And they're intrusions
I'm so afraid
I feel the burning on my skin
like a pyromaniac's within
The demon's willpower is thin
The demon's willpower is thin
And this is where it all begins
The match that sparks the darkest sin
Like a veil of acid clouds their minds
Forms a black cherry sky of blood
The red rain pours down for the flood
of rage and hatred
A killing buds
I can only say it's a deeper force
I can only pray we'll be safe on this ledge
We're dropping like flies and we're getting bruised
We see black and blue but their world's brick and glue
We see black and blue but their world's brick and glue
We see black and blue but their world's brick and
What what what are we coming to?
I'm so afraid

Undertow
I steal the fire from winters rose
I feel desire
A chilled rejection off azure skin
for mere affection
I give it to you, I give it to you
A tempest will writhe
in my veins and mine eyes
So pellucid, the vain desperation
Your indifference is my demise
opened my reins let you inside
Take me there, all of myself
Blissfully blind to the crossbones you hide
I give it to you, I give it to you
Now I've become ill and still
I want to nurture you back to health
I give it to you, I give it to you
A tempest will writhe
in my veins and mine eyes
So pellucid, the vain desperation
Your indifference
The blood my lifeline
Watch it drain realize
I give it to you

The Bottle Song
I look backwards on the setting sun
The warming colours touched the - heaven sung
See truth shining through a cracking mould
I was sold
How the surface gleamed
Reflection rays of hope
How the surface gleamed
Fell on fences that were picket black
a warming whispered on wind held me back
Deceived by blinding white textures of gold
I was sold
How the surface gleamed
Reflecting rays of hope
How the surface gleamed
I look backwards on the setting sun
now I don't run
|
Visions
I smell the salt air, it stays in my hair
like memories that cling to my head
I'm walking on lines of all that reminds
I'm hanging on like beads on a thread
Far far
These visions are
My shallow desire that screams in a fire
Is burning out from embers to dust
The flowers and streams that glow in my dreams
Are nurturing the seeds of lust
Far far
These visions are
Cherub flies with a dove her wings carrying love
A sharp wind blown descending her fall
Windblown bodies will flail get all caught in my sail
Above a sea of comfort for all
Far far
These visions are
|
Forgotten
Should I be so strong can I be?
Will I stay unbroken, unbroken
If I've damned you wrong, it's for the forgive me's
All the vanishing emotion and the blasphemy -
devotion, things that I tried not to see
Now I'm stone and forgotten to you
Don't throw down your life to me
I choose to be forgotten
Will you be so strong far less trusting
Is all broken up, yet still spoken of in a crime of need
Blood streams for me and sacrifices blaze
to try and find your peace
|
Awaiting Eternity
A violent encounter
The red sky was bleeding glimpses
of Heaven in sections of seven
Awaiting eternity
The violets adorned her
and wishers would mourn for hours
but fountains of joy have hollowed her eyes
Soul - bound in my body
My eyes are broken windows
Go inside of me
Awaiting eternity
Her breath was all given
And torn by a living heartache
Whose choking despair wrenched
with claws she could not bear
Awaiting eternity
Her death withdrew sunshine
Now drops of the separation
find sharp, jagged mountains
to echo her cries
Soul - bound in my body
My eyes are broken windows
Go inside of me
Awaiting eternity
