Maria

I can sometimes squeeze, from each breath taken, a moment that's easy, that makes me swoon, face washed happy, in hospital rooms, outside is a magnolia tree, cars mark the way, sunlight hangs on trees, they’re playing my tune, forget about holidays, the surf goes boom, passion feeds my frenzy, my bed is a creel, below me’s the sea, dance on golden avenues, the lake at Geneve, I’ll bear my good news, the house timbers creak, I even kneel to pray, sometimes turn to speak, love is what stays.

Leanne

Her manner always myriad, many a life she’s thrown, unlike mine let it be said, never violent like the sea, a scientist bright she knows, the solace of dreams, never in danger losing cred, creates but doesn’t own, always says more is less, she won’t leave this café, and cannot pray for calm, but will tend her keys, with lipstick instead, her skin golden brown, she lights someone’s bed, a loving need, for some lucky scrap, brings a sense of ease, gives us our daily bread, makes it warm as toast, she who lightly treads, so heavy on our soul.

James

You ask how I cope, If you could only help, to take me back home, why make me suffer, I know my own ends, 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, or make my thoughts falter, measure my chrome, put me in a spell, leave me wide open, I start to stutter, on bars made of leather, I loved my mother, I’m not just a dope, neither am I tethered, I laugh at your rope, save it for your friends.

Frankie

What do you care, don't hold me in traces, you wouldn't dare, your tune is not easy, blue folds in my Lace, spun by the breeze, say you need to share, our 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, we are no choir, If MUSIC’S so great, are you aware, what you face?

Mica

You sift through trouble, won't get frightened, no one tells on you, before you throw, straw onto fire, the stuff you let go, silence is your rub, a source of brine, hands you scrub, laugh at blue cold, hear the clock chime, who will ever know, these summer loves, forgives broken strife, sings in your blood, before the river flows, check the earth and tides, what you’ve been sold, pull on your singer’s gloves, take your time, shoulder what's to come, drink a little wine.

Paddy

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, say you’re forever alone, you drink wine aghast, you’re no purling dove, whose wings will collapse, go your own way now, consider them fluff, you’re better off gone, no one has a pass, some say good luck, you want to shout Basta, more than enough.

Ally

Look at the moon, a spring tide today, everything comes around too soon, the birds who have flown, seeking away, singing as they go, your eyes don’t fool me, say wouldn't it be great, to find somewhere new, a place for the soul, where paradise reigns, forget mortgage loans, somewhere not cruel, but poised and sedate, no ticket’s due, problems with ‘phones, emotion a name, for all that we know, your good parts are true, I know it’s the case, how will you argue, high on his name ? .
