Freya
Don't turn away silent,
see each other again,
its not such a bad time,
do everything to atone,
nothing brings us shame,
water flows on its own,
laugh in better climes,
is anyone here to blame,
part of me is dying,
beyond this war zone,
shifting sands of fame,
places strangely alone,
return us on the tide,
is all we need to say,
keep us safe inside,
if promises broken,
spirits set ablaze,
call on the unspoken,
make us dance again.

Who can ever say,
we warm on our bones,
life like it is today,
the picture's not kind,
we can cry but won’t,
it's not a pretty sight,
thoughts get waylayed,
the same at any Front,
stuff is far from plain,
like a dawning light,
steals in without sound,
forget our own cries,
maybe take a train,
find someone to love,
it will come again,
set our horizon bright,
from places left and gone,
choose another style,
we are far from done.

Dylan
She taps on the bar,
sees the morning rise,
hits the road burning tar,
dont look at her eyes,
she knows abut fights,
another fine surprise,
she'll just carry on,
everyone's cool at night,
feels inside what's gone,
ask her to stay a while,
you can see the fright,
that hollows out a smile,
howl in ancient parts,
her bags are heavy lite,
prays for dawn to start,
do we take the time,
to say it’ll be alright,
a kiss before she flies,
pushes hard at lights.

Go on then act free,
your tan is well suited,
what am I to believe,
demand of you to sing,
the only song I knew,
blow it on my ring,
it's a tune bittersweet,
melts me to my shoes,
floats above the street,
who are you to bring,
the only gain in view,
if you're so uncaring,
smell again the sea,
you don’t need an excuse,
to rock me to eternity,
wrap us in this sling,
lay aside your dues,
me who makes you think,
you never had a clue.

The sun rises uneven,
cars fill up their lanes,
must you wait 'till evening,
beyond the night sky,
all I want to say,
lies buried deep inside,
a sepia rush of feeling,
a glow just the same,
a brown remembered season,
will you heave the line,
its important that you stay,
not go off drinking wine,
accept my dawn novenas,
smile like on a train,
sooth my bones at least,
know it's not the time,
but please see this way,
believe we are entwined,
try to love me late.

The aching half of you,
when asks for the time,
In a wind tossed room,
acts like you'll allow,
ties that should bind,
feel them in your bones,
it’s wise to stay cool,
if you see the light,
don't give out a clue,
know I am not alone,
on this lonely night,
might even go home,
won’t rage and argue,
allay your cruel jibes,
even nod a thank you,
you have to keep going,
I'll do what’s right,
you might even ‘phone ,
if you feel inclined.

Zara
Wonder if she's right,
to head off for the sea,
swap lilac for the night,
she’ll dance and parade,
make faces for a reason,
her soul works that way,
the shouting and fighting,
it slakes like Duty Free,
to some she's frightening,
her eyes bear the fray,
hungry for the season,
when she calls a day,
what falls from the fire,
when it's off the leash,
hurts her deep inside,
she is no stray,
it's a blessed release,
needs now to go away,
no more deceiving.
