Elena Two

It's useless to wait, a Knife to the bone, always strikes late, never safe to heed, what I've been doing, no one makes me bleed, or gets in the way, I slay my ghosts, no matter what the waste, say nothing about that scene, just leave me alone, my turn now to plead, it leaves me delicate, a song with broken tones, sealed in a freighter’s crate, it’s not my creed, to keep fear at home, when you want to succeed, the moon has a gaze, it knows what you've seen, the wind in the slates, fire on the breeze.

Elena

Just a game my sister, forget how to wrangle, those who miss ships, your search for the free, hangs like a spider, in songs of the wind, the way you kiss, make my eyes cringe, for better promises, so close to the sea, the nearer your frankness, nothing carefree, you are less spin, each line you imagine, rowing the Isthmus, you won’t write to me, or give me waffle, if it’s not to be, why do you insist, the shock of the single, is nothing to miss, for life on the shingle?

Wouldn't it be great, to slip like fallen snow, into soothing rain, say it's not a ruse, that fatal one night gone, ask what's the use, don't worry about gain, at supper ask for bones, mumble how we’ll pay, forget our dangled blues, or the need to show, we’re ready for the duel, always walk in state, spit upon the loans, celebrate what remains, we can never lose, won't say we’re let down, it's only what we do, your hands with rings oblate, cafe's where flowers grow, champagne cognac to chase, it's all ours to blow.

Roberto Two

Now my voice gets raised, just don’t turn me loose, no more hot summer days, I hate to be alone, trapped in my own curfew, on forgotten streets or Metro, you’re no angel, bringing something new, to stoke my rage, you brought me the loans, the party losers, the flirty girl groans, before you set sail, everything seemed true, on what you created, when you’re on your bones, they’ll turn the screw, on everything you own, now you've gone away, can't get past the Blues, I shrink day by day, on golden avenue.

Roberto

Coming by train last night, I swear it’s not easy, to put love out of sight, she lives in Naples, rocks me gently, tells me everything's OK, it's a perfect night, the moon rides the sea, in her arms, I cry, fresh linen and sable, the soul of lost seasons, my money on the table, she talks of a writer, called Lisa Passolini, and kisses me quietly, from the roof we’re able, to see Saint Peter's, I feel the poor flailing, their voice catches flight, be what you want to be, soar like a kite, serene.

Alsana Three

I don't want to know, if you really believe, I'll dance on your bone, sink while you pray, consoled by your money, keep the house anyway, when you're all alone, will you think of the sea, no one hears you groan, or listens when you say, you’ve poured out your soul, along our highway, what you really own, is a taste bittersweet, for bricks and loans, you ask why I’m late, to comfort your greed, who are you to blaze, it’s only wood and stone, if it’s that easy, I need to get going, wear widow's weeds.

Allsana Two

Love blows warm at night, howls in ancient places, waits for light to slide, when promises are broken, spirits name their own names, call out to ancient stones, it will be all right, is all you need to say, just give me time, beyond this war zone, we can sacrifice fame, to others we both know, laugh in gentler climes, it’s to no one’s shame, part of me is dying, a flame burning low, who can you blame, rivers rise on their own, don't turn silent, we'll find home again, return us on the tide, treasure every day.
