Nothing else to gain, a knife to our throat, this is the only escape, they'll depart soon, bloodied on the waves, despite the news, you'll survive the wait, feel it in your bones, never hesitate, we’ll fight their hooks, you don’t want a throne, or the love of fools, hold that broken gaze, you're not a rolling stone, only Brigands seek escape, there’s no need to swoon, they won’t use the rope, you are no one's fool, it's not too late, make them swear and go, this is not our fate, leave us alone.

If you cook with gas, turn the flame up, give it a blast, face like a stone, it’s the way you love, not worth going home, silken ones who trap, think that you're stuck, roll around and laugh, circle you like ghosts, roll in the muck, don’t stay at their posts, you drink wine aghast, you’re no purling dove, whose wings will collapse, go on your own now, consider them fluff, you’re better off alone, no one has a pass, without some good luck, who always shouts Basta !!!! but never enough.

You think that you rule, working on the bread line, regarding the fools, think you're so great, before other's demise, stop before it's too late, it makes you cruel, ignores what’s going on inside, the face of Mr Cool, once again, your eyes dance like fireflies, you’ll have your say, it’s a poor gruel, that overcooks these lies, if it’s all you do, lost in this game, it goes beyond the mind, of who holds the reins, burnt out mules, may offer you insight, but there is no tool, for being kind

My lover asks, were you even born, when you say nothing lasts, are these your ghosts, the dreams you’ve torn, that won't leave you alone, I adjust my mask, stroll down the lawn, I heed no Covid past, don't throw stones, at what you've known, it stops you growing, I enjoy these chit chats, am no fool to pawn, a ticket like that, with love in my bones, I’ll create a storm, everyone needs a home, the key’s on the mat, don’t look forlorn, I don't do aghast, or play the trombone.

You ask how I cope, If you could only help, to take me back home, why make me suffer, you little vixen, no need for your butter, stay out of my zone, I know you mean well, but I’m better alone, the words that you utter, don't come from a pen, they make my heart flutter, measure my chrome, put me in a spell, leave me in the open, I start to stutter, on bar stools of leather, you and my mother, my skin might need soap, but I’m not tethered, I laugh at your rope, save it for your friends

I can sometimes feel, from each breath taken, a moment's ease, that makes me swoon, face washed happy, even in hospital waiting rooms, outside is a magnolia tree, life shows the way, sunlight hangs on trees, they’re playing my tune, forget lousy disease, the wind goes boom, passion is needed, my bed is a reel, I can smell the sea, dance on golden avenues, Paris, Marseilles, Fleur de Lys, all add to good news, the house timbers creak, tack tack falls the rain, I turn to speak, love is what stays.

What do you care, don't hold me in traces, you wouldn't dare, your tune is not easy, blue folds my face, spun by the breeze, say you need to share, this kissing place, why put me here, in chains to the sea, unlike your gaze, a hymn to what’s seized, I know what's fair, when your eyes glaze, lips that snare, on swollen dreams, no one escapes, sugar sweet, I’m no liar, to sing so great, are you aware, what you take?
