In darkness and grain blue,
please give me a sign,
release this stupid fool,
it’s not me gone cold,
when you break the light,
others that you've known,
make me cry in tune,
tears just ask me why,
what I have to lose,
nothing left to hold,
at your sudden news,
is it that I'm old,
care is not an issue,
your eyes in constant flight,
the other one is bruised,
you say it's your life,
stay with me I moan,
can’t we light the fuse,
no one loves alone,
I would die for you,
bells ring out the night,
toll a path of truth,
tell me it’s a lie?

The sum of infinite ways,
puts love on hold for fear,
others close the gate,
all the time you celebrate,
let them come near,
broken laws are hearsay,
for those consumed by hate,
someone holds you dear,
be gentle with them today,
why scream or hesitate,
you’re needed here,
try to navigate,
when bells ring out oblate,
don't worry what’s not clear,
better this than fate,
time is just a knave,
that measures dust not years,
learn to live like crazy,
each evening conjugate,
whatever makes you fear,
smother it with praise,
now’s no time for tears.

your lips twist like knives,
you are not forgiving,
eyes scan the river wide,
what else is new,
the wind bites when living,
our trips to secret venues,
my mother says stay wise,
he'll make you earn a living,
many a tortured night,
our love is never smooth,
I’m tobacco blonde and cry,
maybe it's true,
maybe she's right,
skinned alive and swimming,
sunlight, water, sky,
he’ll want his revenue,
laughter's for the giving,
his eyes are bright blue,
nails me with that smile,
a glance docked by winning,
he dances in the tide,
is this our new beginning?

You laugh at stupid fate,
if you're wearing red,
find gold in a crate,
is this what you do,
always stay ahead,
smile like a fool,
know the latest rate,
even from your bed,
always come too late,
give money to every school,
tho' you've got no cred,
who knows what’s true,
Oh you carry weight,
nothing you can’t shed,
when it’s to your taste,
in a time of feuds,
will they call the Feds,
arrange another curfew,
cold grey slate,
settles in your head,
why hesitate,
tell them you're dead.

In search of desperate news,
set a passage clear,
nothing else will do,
carry heartache home,
it might cost us dear,
drag it all alone,
nothing left to rue,
a course for different jeers,
ones we thought we knew,
if this makes you groan,
think what else you fear,
no matter what the tone,
there’ll be other rules,
to bring a vision near,
golden domes unused,
take another loan,
put perfume on your ears,
on such paths we're born,
food instead of gruel,
prayers instead of tears,
no need to be cruel,
ride the bitter years.

Don’t look at me girl,
I'm shaping up to leave,
are you scared,
shoals of tuna dart away,
can't you see,
they’re frightened of the Marlin,
I can’t share the hurt,
your song of the sea,
don’t really belong here,
you say always too late,
as if you need,
to make me feel great,
worry when I slur,
know what might have been,
as if you really care,
won't kneel down to pray,
for a kind of ease,
nights I'm off the rails,
is it my grey hair,
do I need new teeth,
will hope get me there,
do I have to plead?

Keep an eye on trains,
your body turned to stone,
let them show the way,
forget what's on your mind,
it’s all about your soul,
you're not the lonely kind,
crying makes you play,
a song all your own,
hands reach towards your face,
don't take fright,
or plead like a dope,
for any stray you find,
rub against the grain,
stay out there alone,
don't care about the freight,
your tunes make them smile,
when they’re far from home,
stops the fear inside,
this railroad’s always late,
all your life's on show,
nothing has to change,
just keep going.
