Zaylee

I'm never a girl, who curses and blasts, my mind in a whirl, a face like a stone, I'm built to last, best that you count on, don't treat me with furs, are all men trapped, want me in shiny skirts, I'll waltz like a ghost, dance until collapse, my lies are my own, your head's in a twirl, any present will pass, my prayers are always fair, why cry at the doorpost, drink green tea aghast, ask what I want most, please turn the flame down, if you cook with gas, say your heart's unfurled, avoid any crash.

Yara

Does what you can't find, make you think again, crack open the blinds, it's not worth it alone, there's too much pain, stay close to your own, you'll soon hear of me, standing in the rain, saying everything's fine, drenched to the bone, are you house trained in your torn worn clothes, why try to disguise, each day brings a claim, it adds to the distance, don't trust telephones, shall we play at games, love's got no real home, just stay here tonight, instead of a fast train, then leave at first light, we'll meet again.

Xanthe

Why dream of empathy, sitting on a wall, too drunk to speak, time to raise the stakes, risk being torn, the useless dates he makes, wait around for the seasons, twist my crown of thorns, am giving up on reason, want kids about the place, not being cast forlorn, why does he need breaks, don’t say I'm released, like he's been caught, running away to the sea, provide a hand that shakes, absence is his only call, I slump and vacillate, this isn't really me, jellied to the core, mouthing dumb tranquilities, no one ever loved.

Willa

Parade all the while, say you’re on the ball, ride the lonely miles, in your bones, you’re not here at all, no you are a Jonah, you left me to die, on your holy horse, said we didn’t have time, can you atone, when love turns to gall, must shame fill your bones, flip a coin to the sky, talk of beating the Fall, no worries about style, drink wine from a Jeroboam, hide behind some desolate wall, throw stones at my ghost, what it is to cry, we'll disregard your call, you're not here to lie, let others walk tall.

Vicky

We drink for company, God knows if we're right, all of us need sympathy, the front of house crew, remain out of sight, only come awake at noon, just leave us in peace, sipping for our lives, cooking guides our being, knives as sharp as new, make each day bright, have no truck with fools, now he he says go easy, don't ruin the fry, nothing stands his scrutiny, we're so happy and cool, in the early light, other's will arrive soon, says he can smell the sea, read messages from on high, drink as much as me, isn't this nice ?

Ulla

Things you can't figure out, in the gentle rain, remind me not to shout, scrubbed by fire, I feel myself quake, it's only a small desire, hear what it's all about, terrifying good news, hotter than a pepper sprout, untroubled to conspire, I won't fly away, frighten birds on a wire, it's just a little joust, so hard to ascertain, if its more than nowt, he sits me on a tyre, in a clearings makes me say, the day's getting brighter, won't ask me why, we live like trains, roaring through the night, the earth moves again,

Tracey

Weak smile on his face, he says we’ll carry on, I turn my face away, a horizon once bright, we'll navigate alone, make it feel right, maybe take a train, anyone that comes, we once rode this way, the picture's not kind, I could cry but won't, not a time to make light, why it works this way, he’ll never understand, cars fill up their lanes, within a city's sight, I'll go underground, beneath a lavender sky, bets we each could make, tired of all the loans, nothing's here to gain, by going home.
