Fianna

The wind's an old SoSo, who cares about the train, dancing like a skeleton's bones, busted clothes and spirits dazed, bad vibes we stand derailed, wayward beings without a say, sad breath ain't mine alone, will we see rain, dying for an other show, all aboard they sing away, everything is now in place, they don't need stowaways, care how much we atone, give us drugs hear us pray, ask how we're going, like this on the road, no matter what our pain, old timers on the back row, rattle their chains.

Fernandina

Our time lost between bars, padres and shame, the farmland stretches far, shattered fire within my stars, playing a dangerous game, the song of lovely Spa's, times time inside your car, through beaten wheat in flames, a Summer's avatar, each blue war, unknowing what to say, words becoming shared, whose palm did you cross, was it yours to frame, when you told my Da, your love imprimes a scar, stones surround my name, fear spreads like an arc, until i take the train.

Fila

Holy fools are coming near, who are they to care, what we class as dear, nothing here to ask, only what they've heard, long journeys at the mast, sorrow is not our fear, freedom's for the birds, just a way out of here, our love comes by cask, not what we share, fuelled by other rats, we'll work at debts to clear, often on the third, or some other troubled year, tell us how to steer, the way to find a cure, remind us of Aquinas's tears, innocence and myrrh.

Fancy

Imagine where you are, shivering in your clothes, alongside a Blue police car, no one gives you ease, but a whispering groan, of wasted opportunity, above the still born stars, someone to call you home, where colour is no bar, and dreams not diseased, bought with pay day loans, cried broken homilies, try to stay calm, before the light shines close, hope there are no scars, , who will call my Ma, hear those whispered tones, asks what is the drama, jelly for your bones.

What keeps you being down, a crescent moon at Easter, a night time after sun, your desire to own, denies every season, ordnance map or red zone, a clutch of wayward clouds, billow a search to flee, scudding far from the town, building blocks of your mound, already in dreams, can you accept holy ground, or is it that Chloroform, helps you manage breathing, don't act like a drone, when you love you drown, nothing's given for free, put away your doubts, try to take it easy.

Fabaya

How will we ever know, listening to the rain, the life we can't condone, to take us out of time, rub away the early gains, drink a glass of wine, see the winter's snow, and maybe hear again, long nights of the blow, a sound of broken chimes, days turning grey, fleeing before the wise, red flags at danger tow, should we see the waves, rolling to atone, the ferment of living alone, it's always hard to say, fear is like a crow, better that you praise.

It's sometimes good, to know what's the beef, even tho there's been bad blood, what you gain, information from sea, be spared sharp unknown pain, and touching wood for luck, on the bridge bringing tea, tides taken at their flood, the Second Mate, says you don't get passed three, certain coronary pains, you call the old man's bluff, make him have a bevvy, he's already suffered enough, tell him about your love, that would always be, the time between us enough, before any reprieve.
