Borderland |
| Living in a borderland |
| I don’t feel like a boy I don’t feel like a man |
| And the things I don’t understand |
| Things like love. |
| Like the law, the law of the jungle |
| Aren’t we all animals |
| Aren’t we all animals sharpening our teeth and claws |
| Stocking up on cannon balls |
| Living like nobody knows they can’t hold on |
| To love and live by the law, law of the jungle |
| Help me holy Jesus, won’t You show me how to live? |
| I’ve got monsters at my table, I’ve got Bibles bent like shivs |
| Help me holy Lord, I see the light of Heaven’s porch |
| But so many of us are born here outside Your chain link fence |
| Living in a borderland |
| You got to fend for yourself, let the dogs eat the other man |
| Living in a borderland |
| You got to take what you get, you got to get what you can |
| Aren’t we all dangerous |
| Aren’t we all dangerous, lost boys showing up |
| Pockets full of fairy dust |
| Suffering the wanderlust, they all get crushed |
| Without love by the law, the law of the jungle |
| Help me holy Jesus, won’t You show me how to live? |
| I’ve got monsters at my table, I’ve got Bibles bent like shivs |
| Help me holy Lord, I see the light of Heaven’s porch |
| But so many of us are born here outside Your chain link fence |
| Living in a borderland |
| You got to fend for yourself, let the dogs eat the other man |
| Living in a borderland |
| You got to take what you get, you got to get what you can |
| You can’t hold on |
| Can’t hold on to love |
| You can’t hold on |
| You can’t hold on and live by the law |
| (By the law, by the law) |
