Come and show me what to do How I long to see your face But the shadows cover you Like they do in this place Come and show me what to do How I long to see your face But the shadows cover you Like they do in this place Come and reveal yourself to me Through all the smoke And without flesh Desperate to feel Your skin with mine But I must resolve you without flesh Come and show me what to do How I long to see your face But the shadows cover you Like they do in this place Come and tell me what to do How I long to see your face But the shadows cover you Like they do in this place Violently long to hold you near I must imagine without flesh Glow of your eyes piercing the air We must surrender without flesh Come and show me what to do How I long to see your face But the shadows cover you Like they do in this place Come and tell me what to do How I long to see your face But the shadows cover you Like they do in this place You are inside but so far away Behind the veils without flesh I know you’re here watching me pray To reconnect us without flesh Come and show me what to do How I long to see your face But the shadows cover you Like they do in this place Come and tell me what to do How I long to see your face But the shadows cover you Like they do in this place

There’s only so much you can capture For a time, before it floats away; Those butterflies won’t stop from flying now Though you touch them everyday Only transitory beauty Ephemera, leading the constant way Those pretty skies won’t stop from moving now So you paint them in your brain How I wish I could say what I mean to say Oh, before the moment slips and it’s too late Oh, I wish could say what I mean to say Oh, before the moment slips There’s only so much you can master Before you notice that the game has changed Those butterflies won’t stop from flying now Though you touch them everyday

Never Say 03:38
You get me high, Then you let me down You get me off, Then you turn around I sit and think of the way you feel The way you touch The way you steal You never say Don’t ever say ”I need you” I never say “Need you” We never say I wake from sleep The shadows lie It looked like you, It was in my mind I sacrifice What I feel, I hide For etiquette, But I’m sick inside Need you Never say Need you Never say Thoughts of you consume my flesh And I can’t wait till nothing’s left So I fuck myself And I drink alone, But I want you here I want you home Home… I want you home Need you We never say Need you Don’t ever say Need you

In Time 03:04
She came to me without a dream, Her soul in tatters. Looked in her eyes, it was easy to see That all this matters. Remember all of the tears you’ve cried And that they will all make sense in time. Looking for hope like it’s some kind of drug, All highs and lows. If we are here with imperfect love, Our soul still glows. Remember all of the tears you’ve cried And that they will all make sense in time In time, in time. I heard you say you were losing the fight, And there’s no more. It’s never too late When you’re lost in the night To find a door. Remember all of the tears you’ve cried And that they will all make sense in time In time, in time. Don’t be scared, it’s just the wind Changing all In time In time In time

Letting Go 03:38
Letting go, right now Letting it show, right now Letting go, right now Letting it show… You analyze me, but you’re wrong, As far as I can tell The only difference between us in this moment is You’re further lost in society’s spell Letting go, right now Letting it show, right now Letting go, right now Letting it show… I should be honored when you find me to be crazy Just as you can be too comfortable In sanity’s safety Letting go, right now Letting it show, right now Letting go, right now Letting you know… I’m so sorry but They’re already here; What’s already there Carving out the digital sphere Madness is everything beyond the grasp of humanity; You’re only sane inside the assumption of reality It’s how the light gets in It’s how the light gets in It’s how the light gets in Letting go, right now Letting you know…

Glow 03:35
Lit up like an angel Fallen embers O holy site, Resurrected once the wolves devoured Compelling sparks into the night Electric key turning in the sky My skeleton dreams are violet bright A devil’s mark A vampire bite Glow the light bringer tonight I touched the unforgiven, They painted me with a sign When I said, “I’m ready to be baptized With dimethyltryptamine.” Electric key turning in the sky My skeleton dreams are violet bright A devil’s mark A vampire bite Glow the light bringer tonight Where do you think I’ve been? I kissed the dawn against all odds Who do you think you are? I’ve been embraced by the demigods! Electric key turning in the sky My skeleton dreams are violet bright A devil’s mark A vampire bite Glow the light bringer tonight. I’m coming now I’m coming now I’m coming now…

Starbright 03:36
Looks like I am caught in limbo Will you wait, will you wait for me? One day, I will give you what you need Sometimes you are such an angel I’m a sinner all the way I will open up to you someday And how I wonder what you really are How I wonder what you really are Looks like I’m so far from heaven When you’re there, but I pull away, Trying to be near you in my way You could glow into the nighttime Like a star I wish upon, Brighten me until my fears have gon. And how I wonder what you really are How I wonder what you really are Sometimes things will move too slowly And sometimes way too fast, One day all these chains will be the past One day all these chains will be the past How I wonder what you really are How I wonder what you really are Star light, star bright The first star I see tonight I wish I may, I wish I might Have this wish I wish tonight And the unloved will not know the difference until they do In the light of the promise unfulfilled, In the night of the coming to be, When we dance the Homecoming in the Stars And every glimmer of what was Is felt throughout the universe, Maybe you will Maybe you will Remember me

In My Dreams 03:58
So I guess I’ll see you In my dreams You can watch my heart tear apart At the seams Funhouse mirrors in between The image of our love Losing you at every turn; this maze is too much Reach for you, but it’s hazy From the smoke and lights above, And now you feel the waking world has had enough So I guess I’ll see you In my dreams You can watch my heart tear apart At the seams Looked for you in the clouds Sometimes you’re hard to see All the darkness creeping in, Wish you were here with me So much fun to find you, And I’d love if you found me Which one is the misty world If here we cannot be? So I guess I’ll see you In my dreams You can watch my heart tear apart At the seams
9.
Precious 03:27
Oh, so precious when it kills me It can taste as cruel as sweet So desire walks around me Lighting fires at my feet Oh, so precious and so deadly But the venom tastes like Christ, Like the blood of everlasting For one little sacrifice Oh, so precious and so bitter And I’m finding out the price; It commands you, and it begs you Either way, it’s cold as ice In the name of love Killing in the Killing in the name of love In the name of love Killing, killing in the name of love. Oh, so precious, so unworthy Oh, so precious, so unworthy Killing in the name of love Cruel and sweet, So desire walks around me Lighting fires at my feet, Killing in the name of love
10.
Bitter 05:10
There was a time When I admired those beyond my naïveté I couldn’t wait to be as cynical as they If I’m not smarter, I’m just bitter; A little bit of scorn to start each morning Everyone around you says, “Surrender. All the jaded souls are gone. You’ll be by yourself and you’ve missed out too long” But they’re not smarter, I’m just bitter; A little bit of scorn to start each morning I don’t want this pity now You’re looking down upon me Let me be I’m finally coming out and coming clean; Something in me aches to know That I’m allowed to feel this very way I need to see that I alone own my pain If I’m not tougher, I’m just bitter; A little bit of scorn to start each morning It’s alright, it’s ok You alone own your pain It’s alright, it’s ok You alone own your pain It’s alright, it’s ok It’s ok, it’s alright It’s ok You alone Electric within Alone she dies Her heart is forgiven Pale blue skies Can you feel her Burning horizon?
11.
Worried Mind 03:25
I took it and I buried it deep But the thoughts come back up in my sleep Guilty for what I see Guilty for what is haunting me Ever since I was a child I’ve had a worried mind It was always there Ever since was a child I’ve tried to run away But I wouldn’t dare So I hide it under my bed Maybe I’ll bury it dead Guilty for what I dream Guilty for what is haunting me Ever since I was a child I’ve had a worried mind It was always there Ever since I was a child I’ve tried to run away But I wouldn’t dare So I watch it fester and grow If I hold it, no one will know But it destroys what I could be I have to reveal just what’s in me. What’s in me What’s in me What’s in me What’s in me What’s in me What’s in me What’s in me
12.
Alchemy 02:53
I heard it softly whisper, “Here’s what you need" The truth is within you to be free, And now you receive this alchemy, Now you receive this alchemy It can be locked up so tight That you can’t see; Too many years’ captivity, And now you receive this alchemy Now you receive this alchemy Did you let the angels hold you? Did you let them enfold you? Wheel of lights spinning Are you still... Are you still... on a roll? The axis of my soul... You are the rainbow between two crows! You are the church bells, That saved me from hell! Don’t be afraid to find it And what it will bring Deep in your soul, you have everything And now you receive this alchemy And now you receive this alchemy This alchemy.

about

The story of this new yet throwback release begins in 2004 when an album was spontaneously written and recorded by Miss Valentine using a four track analog tape deck, drum machine, piano, and Juno-60 synthesizer during the span of a few days. These unreleased songs became quietly known as the "Red Wine Sessions".

Now, in 2019, Valentine is resurrecting the record in a new form, having produced each song once more from scratch. REVAMPED is the first album since prior to 2006 in which Valentine is dropping her usual A.K.A., CINDERGARDEN, to reveal a title bearing her signatory alone.

‘Revamped' strikes an emphasis on restoration, transitions, and endless fluctuations within the passages of time. Jaymie sheds the long-standing alias of Cindergarden in favor of an intimately stripped down stamp, effectively rolling out a writing style from the intriguing songbird’s past while further crystalizing her hallmark musical cunning.
