NEVA

One of These Days

It was in the little town of Saratoga, CA. where 9 year old Neva first began playing her guitar and writing songs. Now a seasoned entertainer, her alternative pop rock style has developed strongly from a diverse upbringing and years of classical training. In the middle of her power and passion, her guitar parts tell their own story making it hard to believe that it’s all just one girl and her guitar. With “A depth that seems strange in someone who looks so young”, Neva’s universal appeal grows with every performance.

Having just released her debut album, ‘One of these Days’, Neva currently has residencies at over 15 venues throughout California and performs nightly to promote her CD.

Known as an acclaimed solo acoustic artist, Neva also leads a talented band that she tours with to represent the bold sound of her album. The catchy melody, “One of these days you’ll forget about me, forget about all the things I’ll never be” will be running through your head over and over again as you realize that Neva is wrong….. you wont forget about her.

Should Neva’s music remain in your mind for more than 4 hours, consult a physician immediately… They’ll tell you it’s normal!

    Seven

    Marching through in frantic strides
    add up all owed to you
    Confess your weary lies and tally up the truth

    Lonely are you now....you talk still

    Confessing all your weary lies
    you're wearing yourself thin
    Release your tension put off all your deadly sin

    Lonely are you now...you talk still

    I beg forgiveness from the God within myself
    Keeping track of my confessions while practicing good health
    I'd do it all for Him but it never felt the same
    I try to understand but my God merely my name

    Release us from these isles
    and free our conscience from all states of right and wrong

    Unleash us from these chains
    and free our conscience from
    all states of right and wrong

    In hiding The Holy Spirit longs

    Find my own way.....I'm solo
    Find my own way...I'm so low

    They slip into a state of mind
    That which their Lord they can not find
    And if they sleep before they wake
    They fear their themselves their soul to take

    Take me out does anybody know just where I've gone
    Take us out to each his own right and wrong
    We lye in our stately home

    Find my own way

    Too Raw

    You say you've found the balance
    between love your work and home
    What difference does it make?
    Because this life is ever changing
    and our balance comes in waves
    So what difference does it make?

    For so long now...I have walked beneath your pedestal

    Too Raw - Too Rough - Too Random
    Aren't we only digging up our own graves?
    Too Raw - Too Rough - Too Random
    You find your balance on waves
    Too Raw - Too Rough - Too Random
    Aren't we only digging up our own graves?
    Too Raw - Too Rough - Too Random

    I was in search of any answers your words were to retain
    But I fear there's been a mistake
    Because as much as you're admired
    I've my own life to attain so really...
    What difference do we make?

    Too Raw - Too Rough - Too Random
    Aren't we only digging up our own graves?
    Too Raw - Too Rough - Too Random
    You find your balance on waves
    Too Raw - Too Rough - Too Random
    Aren't we only digging up our own graves?
    Too Raw - Too Rough - Too Random
    You wouldn't show.....

    For no longer now shall I walk beneath ones pedestal

    All I wanted was
    to form a constitution for my piece of mind
    Now I am dealing with the resolution
    that what's mine in mind is only mine
    And I balance this weight different all the time

    All along down this dusty road tell me what difference do we make?

    Fading

    How many times must I cross this path where your words just break me down
    Your eyes just spin me round
    And I doubt all decisions I swore I found true

    You say that she's a nice girl and I know I shouldn't care
    but then you say you still love me - you'll always be there
    Turn me into something - I don't even care
    Turn me into anything just get me out of here

    Cause I'm trading all that I see
    In search of a better side of me

    So turn me into fire - Turn me into stone
    Turn me into anything so my heart beats on it's own

    While I'm fading from the falling dreams of us

    So lets get back to the point at hand you ask
    Why am I bothered? Why am I sad?
    You say it's my decision but what choice did I really have?
    I was lost and lonely cold and tired soul was feeling bad

    Now I'm facing all of my fears
    You've moved on and I'm still right here

    Turn me into fire -Turn me into stone
    Turn me into anything so my heart beats on it's own

    While I'm fading from the falling dreams of us

    All differences aside - Do you feel you and I
    Have tried all we can try to be.....

    In my arms, In my arms
    Still holding onto what I thought we should have been but
    In my heart, In my heart
    I know I know better but better doesn't know me yet

    So turn me into fire - Turn me into stone
    Turn me into anything so my heart beats on it's own

    While I'm fading from the falling dreams of us
    I'm fading from the falling dreams of us
    I love you still but love's still not enough
    I'm fading from the falling dreams of us

    The Things I'll Never Be

    You may be my one and only savior
    For this mending heart to learn to bend
    Cause it just hurt so bad to love you like that
    Knowing all along how it would end

    You may be but the most biggest failure
    For my will to recognize such pain
    The things I saw from so far away
    Were clear in sight in the middle of the day
    But i didn't want to talk about those things

    And it showed right from the start
    Never could I leave you - Never could I part

    One of these days I'll forget about you
    Forget about all the things you'll never do
    One of these days you'll forget about me
    Forget about all the things I'll never be

    You may be my one and only savior
    For this mending heart to learn to bend
    Cause it just hurt so bad to love you like that
    Just knowing all along how it would end

    And it showed right from the start
    Never could I leave you - Never could I part
    And I froze down to the heart
    Hungry as I was I pulled myself apart

    And when I finally find a future past this fever
    I'll find a few beliefs here
    And once I start crying over better things than you
    Well I find some hope in truth

    One of these days I'll forget about you
    Forget about all the things I"ll never be
    On of these days you'll forget about me
    Forget about the things I'll never be

    The things I'll never be.....

    Only in My Dreams

    Vaguely I see a rain cloud moving up on me
    But It's missed me by a handful of your smiles
    And lately I'm seen
    gliding across the waters gleam
    I've never felt so warm as I do now

    Only in my Dreams
    Could I ever come so close to believe
    I could adore someone the way that I adore you
    As real as this may seem I'm a cloud nine model dream
    Cause your growing old with me
    I cant wait to see you there

    And when you hold me
    Our bodies one tranquility
    We're rich - we're famous
    let the wild lions tame us
    We're are all we could ever be
    And I'll take you with me through all the worlds my soul can see
    Cause you simply make everything worthwhile

    Only in My Dreams
    Could I ever come so close to believe
    I could adore someone the way that I adore you
    My soul had found it's ease
    When you asked that we might please
    Share these days together

    I'm singing to all the rhythms of you rhymes
    Now that you're mine
    We'll laugh forever - grow old together
    May we always dream in color now that "We Do"

    Beautiful Lie

    She's wrapped up in his arms like Sunday
    So long to come yet so quick to go
    And she's always waking in denial
    who she's holding onto by Monday
    3 villains in shining armor, 40 thieves, a fairy tale and some ghosts

    Beware of how he loves you
    And onward stitch that tares to repair you apart

    Hold him close, keep him close, hold him down
    He's a frail one on his own though we'll never see
    He goes running from you then comes running to me
    and we race his beautiful lie
    Falling in love, falling down,
    falling short for all ways to mesmerize

    Bite down that which you chew
    It tastes sour what's become of you
    Though I know - So naive
    I wanted to believe there was more to your soul
    In ways I blame my morals to arise
    To see just how to justify a little girl lost in a beautiful lie

    All I miss our nice talks
    All I wished your nice thoughts

    Now I am the one who's speaking in tongues
    Your world is just my type
    Falling in love, falling down,
    falling short for all ways to mesmerize

    All I wished was to feel you out
    All I missed was love...

    All eyes - All lies - All eyes - All lies

    Through a haze may I see
    You're pulling such sad sad song from me
    Though I know it's all a lie - worth a lie
    Through a haze we believed
    if we'd try we'd be...some a destine fault
    And all the rest worth a lie

    (So lost in distant measures
    A moral doesn't break for free
    Forgive such selfish pleasures
    that now sort through frail debris)
