Our Cargo Party: Kenny

Our Cargo Party: Kenny: In darkness and grain blue, please give me a sign, release me from stupid fools, it makes me look old, when you turn on the light, others t...

His lips twist like knives, he is not forgiving, eyes scan the river high, 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 slipping, maybe it's true, maybe she's right, skinned alive when sinning, 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 my new beginning?

You laugh at stupid fate, glad that you’re not dead, find gold in a crate, this is what you do, always stay ahead, smile like a fool, know the latest rate, even from your bed, fools come too late, give money to kid’s 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, don’t call the Feds, arrange another curfew, a cold grey state, settles in your head, why hesitate, wear your red dress.

In leaving desperate news, I set a passage clear, nothing else will do, don’t carry heartache home, it might cost us dear, won’t tell them where I’ve gone, nothing left to rue, a course for different fears, ones I thought I knew, if this makes you groan, think what else is near, drag it all alone, there’ll be other rules, any vision comes with tears, golden domes unused, take another loan, put perfume on my ears, on such paths we're born, food that is just gruel, prayers instead of beer, no need to be cruel, we'll ride the bitter years.

Sing along on trains, turn their laughs to stone, don’t wonder why you came, forget what's on your mind, it’s all about your soul, you're not the lonely child, crying makes you play, a song all your own, hands reach to your face, don't take fright, throw them some rope, keep any stray you find, rub against the grain, stay out there alone, don't worry about freight, your songs make them smile, now they’re far from home, it stems the fear inside, this railroad’s always late, all your life's on show, guide them along the way, just keep going.

Why do you need to phone, the airport is not far, love is just a joke, a screen that you use, searching near and far, as dreams circle around us, Saints reveal their bones, they leave their scars, don’t do passion alone, why draw up a feud, at this crowded bar, you know what to do, just leave me here and go, my head bonging la la, you’re right at home, heading for the blue, waving to your lucky star, I’ll down another few, it’s not a great start, safe within my credit zones, what’s inside me nearly gone, the keys to the car ?

Don't pray in the rain, or swear upon your ma, stuff you can't fake, hopes you won’t use, smother what it costs , places without refuge, see that portrait, of you wounded and lost, JOHN it’s got your name, whatever you choose, don't shout blah, whoever pays the dues, whisky fires the brain, souls live without trouble, you won’t run away, nor brook a dawn curfew, force the door ajar, despite golden avenues, gains that you'll make, make without scars, true spirits of the highway, travel without cars.
