Borderland |
Dark avenues turn into open roads |
Crowded tenements into well-kept homes |
Some folks die wealthy and young with bitter hearts |
Others stay healthy long enough to see joy wither and scar |
I don’t want any part of it |
To be the victim, the assailant, or the advocate |
So we’re riding out to where we don’t exist |
Headlights cutting bright into the darkness |
Oh, obscurity has found me in a motel suite |
A thousand miles from the refinery |
And polluted streets we grew to resent |
Where we’d coexist with poison family and bitter friends |
Chain link or picket, no one was admitted to the winning end |
We were all wolves or lambs for the man behind the curtain |
Arguing in circles for the prosecution or the defense |
Lying on the hood of the car watching the sun go down |
The devil in me knows one day we’ll have to turn around |
«Can you imagine,» Jenny says to me |
As the moon rises over the beach |
«Having our own place by the ocean? |
I know it will never be |
But isn’t it pretty to dream?» |
