Wouldn't it be great, to slide on fallen snow, spin slowly in the rain, say it's not a ruse, many a night that’s gone, what you never lose, don't worry about the gain, at supper ask for bones, scream for stuff each day, forgetting is our due, everything we blow, what’s given to the few, we’ll always die intestate, spit upon the loans, consider what remains, we can never choose, when we’re on the go, burn only low cost fuel, lips made to celebrate, great deeds where grasses grow, champagne cognac is our grace, put it all on show.

Ellen

You won't make me cry, one star is nothing new, between the moon and sky, do you enjoy being stupid, instead of cruel, in a universe of fools, don’t say it's all right, flush love down the sewer, give arsenic a try, it’s not my perfume, a song that refuses, to bring you the news, you’ll face the tides, without any view, when you’re up this high, it’s not lassitude, or your other mules, laughter makes true, bitter dreams by candlelight, give me just my due, angels soar the ocean wide, I’ll try a different tune.

You can swear and blow, say it's never too late, to make your way home, but don’t spoil the soup, or worry about fate, you're no one’s fool, a rolling stone, gathers no weight, luck's when it rolls, come back soon, it’s better this way, before everything’s due, too close to the zone, what is it about you, that’s not alone, don’t mind the hooks, you'll always need loans, from my order book, you're too old to roam, nothing left to explain, no knife to your throat, at this broken gate.

Stevie Two

I ask is it right, other times don’t, why stars shine some nights, like a sense of grace, that marks our zone, when we're out this way, you stare into my eyes, the wind is black and cold, you’re gone in wine, kids and dogs are great, why go roaming, everyone can hear the gate, if you can’t stay now, call this place home, flame reins us in tight, hear me castigate, down a broken phone, accept my tirades, no matter how we fight, or strain our bones, I only chase the light, not to be alone.

Stevie

My Ma thumps the bar, she crumbles, he might bring his tart, no pine needles nor hay, bursts over these lovers, home or away, he’s crossed the park, lays out his troubles, right from the off, to sail on blue waves, a ship for a mother, that’s what he craves, he's ruined her heart, my girl says I wonder, where did it all start, not far away, love always fumbles, to remain the same, I still hear me Da, laughing like a jug, happy he’s not tarred, hung by rumours.

Elena Three

What else d'you need, make it the last dream, just leave me to bleed, consider me gone, busted or relieved, one day you’ll atone, hung out on the breeze, an Ocean of grief, won’t make you believe, think of the ghosts, who hang out in sympathy, they’re here in my bones, when you left the scene, under the purple trees, my eyes burst like seeds, you drink to forego, this terrible deed, has the cock crowed, what you once deemed, is hard to perceive, stowed like some luggage, into a creed.

Elena Two

It's useless to wait, I kiss to the bone, always strike late, never bother to heed, about your doings, no one makes me bleed, or gets in the way, I slay my ghosts, no matter what the waste, don’t talk of that scene, just leave me alone, your turn is to plead, it leaves me delicate, a song with broken tones, sealed in a crate, not in my creed, to keep you at home, if you want to succeed, the moon has a gaze, it knows what I've seen, the wind’s in the slates, it leavens the trees.
