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?» |
