You moved your hands
Across your face
You stood from the table
Crossed the floor
And walked out into the night
In your wake: the cold draft
The doors swinging and then sighing shut
Still ~ in this city at night
There is no place dark enough to disappear in
But every electric light casts a shadow long enough
for someone else to hide in
Wet pavement and slushy streets
The dull ache of our cold damp feet
Empty towers,
Lit up like electric candles
sending steam plumes
Into the frigid air
Still ~ in this city at night
There is no place dark enough to disappear
But every electric light casts a shadow long enough for someone else to hide in
We leaned in
Between drinks and the din and the traffic out in the street
Over which we could not speak
Then stepped outside
And disappeared into the city

If you speak you're a spell
When you give you're a spell
How you move is a spell
Who you love is a spell
How you fall is a spell
If you hate you're a spell
When you take you're a spell
If you hurt you're a spell
When you doubt you're a spell
When you fall you're a spell
You're a spell, you're a spell
You're a spell, You're a spell
You're a
When you dream you're a spell
How you greive is a spell
What you believe is a spell
When you fall you're a spell
When you speak
How you hope
How you cope
Who you hold
How you fall
You're a spell
spell is a spell, is a spell, is a spell, is a spell, is a

Give up the ghost of your time
If you're gonna be following us followers
Don't fall,
Behing
Step in time
Step in time
Step in time
Step in time
Step in time
Step in time
Pick up your thoughts where you left them
In the blue light, gonna be just fine
Everything's gilded in gold
In the cage you have made of you're time
But the lonesome,
The sickly
The folds
And the rolls
And the olds, gotta go now
When you're shaking you head
For the ghost that is left and its gone, gone
Gone
Give the Ghost,
Give up the ghost
Give up to ghost
Give up the ghost
Give up the ghost of your time
If you're gonna be following us followers
Don't fall,
Behind

Hermitess Calgary, Alberta
Hermitess is the project of an aging and slightly reclusive witch, dreaming simultaneously in music and images. Sonically, layered orchestral textures, harmonic voices, and pedal driven magic, all conjuring a fleeting fever dream.
Hermitess recommends:
This music has magic that is current and drives forward possibilities and new directions for music made with the harp
