Why live in a haze,
sheltered from the wind,
battered like cellophane,
best not to moan,
or burn a holy candle,
life is only a loan,
why jump the trains,
scour the land,
for a perfect phrase,
in your worn out clothes,
enjoy the contrast,
you're not on your bones,
make a step change,
blow the ten grand,
find love instead of trade,
when someone groans,
you don't understand,
move out of that zone,
chained to your days,
can your heart expand,
in greater ways,
or not understand?

Look at the moon,
a spring tide today,
everything comes around too soon,
the birds who have flown,
seeking a way,
singing as they go,
my eyes dart I'm cool,
say wouldn't it be great,
to make it somewhere new,
in a hurricane zone,
where no panic reigns,
encircle the loans,
somewhere not cruel,
but poised sedate,
I'll scatter the dues,
problems the wind blows,
emotion's just a name,
for a love that's gone,
my good parts aren't Blue,
I can firmly state,
you'll love it there too,
high above the flames.

I need another home,
help me to say,
what you know is gone,
what I need to do,
unravel the waste,
how unlovely the truth,
in troubled zones,
I create solace every day,
try to feel never alone,
the sea is lemon blue,
cafe's swell with rain,
it brings nothing new,
here in my bones,
I try to stay sane,
can I ever atone,
what's sought by your nephew,
especially en flagrante,
don't know who to shoo,
brilliant stones,
whisper your name,
waters groan,
echoes my disgrace.
Rick
Who can just smile easy,
knowing what to say,
when a spirit's released,
a high heeled slumber,
stones, wreaths, grave,
it makes you wonder,
a coward's retreat,
finds no hope or shape,
I'll find it one day,
did I have your number,
when you say,
live life unencumbered,
my insides screech,
tunes jingle and play,
I see you in the sea,
waste of time don't bother,
I'm the disgrace,
you roll in the thunder,
hoist by my own conceit,
a certain rising too late,
eager to squeeze,
memories of your face.

The love you show,
dissolves gives way,
a fool in every bone,
is it in your creed,
to circle every day,
are you brave enough to see,
in garment sewn,
by a drunken oblate,
is this what you know,
stones, flowers, pieces,
to keep you engaged,
you want to be free,
is this why you've flown,
not only the shame,
makes you sing as you go,
a sea house by the sea,
bring whisky for your pain,
try to be happy,
brilliant stones,
whisper your name,
Spring's in full flow,
find your own pace.

Whoever owns the night,
the wind hushed fog dunes,
makes you wonder why,
she keeps a cheerful home,
beats away the blues,
always on the go,
forgets the bitter times,
all the cool untruths,
bars, rain, gloom, suicide,
dreams of New York,
always glad to see you,
since thank Christ you phoned,
the air splashing by,
searching for truth,
some waste all their lives,
others touch the stones,
kid themselves to look,
what they had before,
She whistles at freedom passing by,
laughs and hums a tune,
says it's stupid to lie,
this is what I do.

Queenie
it just goes to show,
I don't need your ease,
in some lane dead slow,
be witness to your sighs,
care less about your homes,
or your weary lies,
suck Linguini think of loans,
it takes energy to release,
my frozen bones,
instead of the jibes,
I'm not someone to lease,
you won't hear me crying,
is this what you know,
how to strip out dignity,
keeping up a cheerful tone,
don't try to be wise,
it's nothing to me,
I've marked many nights,
better face the blow,
i float on the breeze,
heaven's in my soul,
no need to say please.
