Brilliant great crows,
caw out your name,
summer's in full flow,
you want to be free,
is this really your game,
how to live happy,
give what you don't know,
register your shame,
find your own hollow,
dissolve in the sea,
only fools act tame,
it's not in your creed,
to number each bone,
circle every day,
taste marshmallows,
stones, flowers, pieces,
obtain drunken oblates,
swear your great grief,
weep as you go,
take your share of blame,
drink whisky you're told,
am sick of your fame.

In darkness and grain blue,
please give me a sign,
rid me of this cuckoo,
is it me gone cold,
others see the light,
maybe some you've told,
my tears are tapping shoes,
why waste crying,
you are such bad news,
cant be bothered to scold
lightning fills the sky,
good times hard to hold,
with your spinning hoops,
eyes in constant flight,
care becomes your issue,
it makes me feel bold,
you castigate my life,
just get out this home,
I will fix a fuse,
explode all your lies,
all the hopeless truths,
bells ring on the wold,
strangers will ight fires,
I am the god of old,
who knows i'm right?

These waters groan,
I whisper your name,
your ship has gone,
don't know what to do,
a brilliant stain,
covers your truth,
can you ever atone,
what's sought in your name,
now I'm alone,
how unlovely is the news,
that echoes in your place,
wish I'd never met you,
whatever has flown,
look over the waste,
can't believe we're done,
the sea is lemon blue,
my face is drained,
you've joined another crew,
find another home,
you'll always be the same,
God knows I'm strong,
but not the same.

Querida
Memories alone are phased,
so happy to tease,
the shine upon your face,
you recoil at my thunder,
innocence complete,
your mind fixed by number,
my calls came too late,
another time to squeeze,
what I need to say,
a life uncluttered,
my insides screech,
go look for another lover,
one day I'll find my own,
even in my sleep ,
a dream surrendered,
who has greater muster,
grit in crossing the sea,
are we born to suffer,
am I the disgrace,
who has to beat a retreat,
bound fast to your days,
does it make you wonder,
stones, graves wreaths,
who breaks who asunder,
not knowing what to say,
unknowing to appear easy,
just look away,
a spirit released ?

Chained to your days,
can your heart forgive,
his treacherous ways,
it's best not to know,
or mereley rescind,
what's been the joke,
why live in a haze,
sheltered from the wind,
not stuck like cellophane,
make out on your own,
throw his stuff in skips,
put meat on them bones,
find love instead of trade,
welcome moonlight shifts,
no matter what he says,
when drunks start to blow,
ask if you're fit,
move out of that zone,
why jump the trains,
figure how to win,
there's no perfect way,
to learn how to give.

Why do these waters shine,
brightly whisper your name,
when your ship sails alone,
don't know what I'm doing,
it's all a stupid game,
canvas stalks our soul,
can I ever disown,
how I bought your game,
deep within my bones,
sail unlovely in the new,
a plan that brings disgrace,
makes me dream of you,
wherever birds have flown,
do they know the waste,
in this mud filled town,
the sea is brimming too,
your face is drained,
nothing more is true,
I'll find another home,
will try to stay sane,
I know what's gone,
is it me you blame?

Who can ever say,
you'll love it here,
dancing in the flames,
hell is just a slogan,
our eyes are very clear,
we sing sing as we go,
wouldn't it be great,
to live without fear,
blow in like a hurricane,
we'll pay back the loans,
drink less beer,
we still have a home,
nowhere's just a name,
its no place for cheer,
but no panic reigns,
problems the tide flows,
it just brings us near,
closer to our soul,
a spring moon today,
it gkides across the Mere ,
birds have gone away,
life is too dear?
