8:30 that same morn
Snow still falling after dawn
By other name would smell as sweet
Jonas weeps outside her home
Another kind heart that made
Me ashamed of my own
He cries alone but not without his name

Jonas hates the day
Blames the world far away
Useless now in this game
He's still shouting Eva's name
Jonas hates the day
Blames the world far away
The Love in him will be my rose garden bed

Mocked by children endlessly
LIttle boy so crushed by grief
For one single moment more
He would run 'till he was dead
Time for one last strangled cry
Before his breaking, everweep
We taunt him with his own broken heart

Jonas hates the day
Blames the world far away
Useless now in this game
He's still shouting Eva's name
Jonas hates the day
Blames the world far away
The Love in him will be my rose garden bed

Author's Comments

This is a poem I wrote after listening to Nightwish's new song "Eva." I was thinking, "what if Eva had someone who DID love her?" An older brother, perhaps? So I wrote this poem about Eva's older brother, Jonas, the boy she left behind. The words fit perfectly into the existing music for "Eva," and thus were made to function as alternate lyrics.

So you bang both guys and girls?
Sorry to be the little critic that could, but...
If God was a fabric, it would be corduroy.
I think we leave them alone...
We have, like, five words.

Thanks. It took some work (for example, "rose garden bed" rather than "sunflower field" sounded a little awkward, but it was all I could think of), but I'm very proud of the final result.

Now to record it...
