Now my voice is raised, get out of here loser, no more early summer days, I hate to be alone, but can do without you, my gaslighting Maestro, I'm no no angel, trapped in my own curfew, but earn my low wages, you thought the loans, the night time cruisers, the flirty girl poses, would let you set sail, without any crew, except me as your bail, now on your bones, I'll laugh at the screw, they turn on your throne, they've put you away, am well past the blues grow stronger in ways, beyond your certitude.

Coming by train last night, I swear i'm fine really, to put love out of sight, he lives around the Bay, rocks me gently, tells me everything's OK, it's a perfect sight, the moon rides the sea, in his arms I'm alright, morning fresh live bait, the soul of lost seasons, a match salted holiday, he talks of what's might, and kisses me quietly, he won't leave his wife, from our roof we’re able, to see Saint Peter's, I catch myself flailing, voices for evening light, be what you want to be, soar like a kite, wish it that easy.

Don't play your games, remember life's lottery, it's nearly the same, those who miss ships, search for the free, get salt on their lips, for better rates, they sit by the sea, it carries their freight, in songs of the wind, they make my eyes sing, the way you kiss, but now on your face, nothing comes easy, each trip you take, roving the Isthmus, a wine darrkened homily, gives me no promise, is it fair to say, you love only the quays, to let a heart quake, what about me ?

Sadie

Whatever you need, take the last can, then let me grieve, consider me a token, neither busted nor wan, don't think am broken, hang me on the breeze, or under a tonne, won't hear me scream, since you walked home, under a lilac sun, my heart left to go, you think it necessary, you want me done, ghosts of all conceit, drink to atone, a once pretty shone, my mouth like a crone, what you once deemed, so cruel to be gone, now you believe, I was the one.

It's useless to say, a Knife to the bone, love always strikes late, never safe not to heed, what else its been doing, to make me bleed, gets in the way, when I beat at ghosts, no matter what the day, keeps schtum about scenes, then leaves me alone, my turn now to plead, I feel ao delicate, a song with muffled tones, like sealed in a crate, it’s not my creed, to hit you with stones, but I've been seceeded, if moon has a gaze, it knows where you've been, brings wind to the slates, fire on the breeze.

Queenie

SHe stamps on the tar, as a Diva then crumbles, why are stars out so far, no pine needles nor hay, her farm's like a lover, better keep it that way, asks why cross the arc, everywhere is trouble, why does she bother, to sail on blue waves, a ship for a mother, this is what she craves, he's ruined her heart, shocked here in wonder, where did that start, not two miles away, he awaits and hungers, she might skip a train, she still hears him now, laughing like a juggler, happy he’s not barred, who splits who asunder ?

Paris

You can suffer and blow, say it's always too late, to make your way home, don’t fall out the loop, worry about your fate, I am no one's fool, for a missing soul, there’s no escape, let your dice roll, luck better change soon, nothing gets in my way, when the rent's due, too close to the zone, what is it about you, with no friends at all, don’t mind the hooks, you'll always need loans, are you really bad news, too old to roam, no fortune to explain, no knife to your throat, who is to blame ?
