Many a tear has been shed over love
But I will not be a victim
So many people have blamed God above
But I'll have nothing to do with him
Whatever I do, I do on my own
Whatever shit happens, it's my fault alone
I don't need someone to bear all my sin
It's my life and my fight to win

I Sit Alone

I sit alone in a place down below
Broken
Bleeding
Drained and Lifeless
Blinded and Deaf
I sit alone in a place down below
There's no salvation
Only the numb
Senseless
Despair

Down by the Tracks

I just want to see
How it would be
If I wasn't there
And you didn't care

I just want to view
What would happen to you
If I went away
Never to see another day

So I shimmied down to the railroad track
Not to do anything
Just to feel the wind on my back

And then I decided
That I would remain
Fight through the insanity
Fight through the pain

With an iron fist
And tears in the rain
I would prevail
To win life's game

It shakes the inside of my soul
Soul
Am I crazy?
Crazy
Like bees buzzing in my skull
Skull
I feel my shoulder
Flesh and Bone
Make it bleed
Bleed
To release what's yours
What you punched into me

A beautiful land
Brings beautiful people
And the beautiful people
Give the rest of us anxiety

Compadres

If I jumped
Would you pull me out?
If I stopped caring
Would you give me something to smile about?
If I ran away
Would you search without sleep?
If I got lost
Would you lead me through the deep?
If I forgot
Would you help me know?
If I cried
Would you ease my woe?
All of these things my best friend would do
So if you would let me
I'll be your best friend too
