Like leeches to a wounded fox - I can be to you Or a brother to another, a sister and on and on I think it’s safe to say we are drunkenly roaming the streets trying to get home Whatever it is that brought me here will eventually have to take me there Bitten twice by the same snake No hope for me First, to the one that begat me What happened I used to be so fearless? Fear struck a chord and it made a home It felt like a had no choice Second, to the being that thinks he made me I’ve judged you so unfairly. Sometimes (it feels like) I hardly know you Sometimes it feels like i'm better off without you I can’t see Where you are Where I am In the mess of everything In the mess of everything But still you draw me in, you pull me out You gave the first bite that brought me here and the second will take me out Take me out Come on now sing sing a song of rejoice That this won’t last forever Come on now sing Sing a song for your old man Maybe he did you wrong But you won’t be like him Come on now sing Sing a song of rebellion Sing a song of letting go When it’s time to mourn Sing a song of sorrow Sing a song of love Sing a song of hope Sing a song of peace And of moving forward Sing a song

Crossbiter 03:03
Like rotten wood meant to be the cornerstone of a home Speaking in tongues I know so well sour to taste bitter to hold (I know another one just like it) More just like it Crosshatched deliverance From my words, for my sister and for my brother the sun is setting on them far too quick Let it go, or make your tongue bleed Let it go Crossbiter don't make narrow the road For those who need it dripping in cold

Juarez 04:41
When you’re looking at the way you were raised Every son sees his dad in disdain Take a clenched fist to an open jaw Just to notice that never spoke at all You’re worried sick about your poor mother The look of anger when you left your brother See yourself through your own damned eyes And take a moment when you realize I’ll run away from the martyr A death without cause for me? I was born with no identity I can’t believe you I can’t believe in you I can’t believe this Selfless loss of life? Selfless act of love? “El respeto al derecho ajeno es la paz” Look at me Well I’ve no dignity I care of no one, but myself

Close the serpent's mouth Maybe the serpent is me Why can’t we see that the stones between you and I In sunlight they both look diseased We close our eyes as the speck’s disguise We breed the blood the poor grow to hate Oh and it grows, they’re unsettled. Annihilation - resentment’s never laid to waste Lay me to waste I covet the shine Lay me to waste I’ll only waste your time Born here, but I belong over there The bastard son of nothing Annihilation take care of me a weak minded coward that serves nobody There's nothing here The synonymous existence of living and suffering is only made worse by the brother that's not listening Coward Coward am I if I take it back won't you take me home? I am no one I’m at a loss for words Lay me to waste (teach me to speak) In silence there are no answers

Teacher - light me the way I have an empty pearl Worthless, but it's mine Well I am indignant Well I lack love Like a creature blinded From staring up too long Don't move Don't get frustrated I have no control Totally silenced by decaying teeth - stay calm Look in my eyes I am just a creature In silence there are no answers Explain, teacher.

Speak slow with a glass jaw Hatebreeder Resentment feeder Like vultures into open caskets Is the venom that you’re piercing in the veins of the frantic Well I think you should try and speak to me Wise boy let me hear your words Well I think you should try and speak to me Semantics melt despite your words Speak to me Slow eyes Dead words I'm not your son I'm not your boy Slow eyes Dead words No home No rose
7.
I am the man who has seen affliction He’s driven and brought me to gloom There’s no light Surely against me he turns his hand He’s broken my bones, bitterness surrounds me. Under the rod of his wrath Oh my soul Is looking for humility For serenity For peace of mind And for a time where I can’t tell if you and I are different My souls remembers My soul will cry But I call to mind That I have hope We have hope No chance of passing with walls so high Though you cause grief, please have compassion Though the path I walk was was made crooked I will stand All of our enemies open their mouths against us My eyes flow with rivers.

Plagued 04:34
No rose for me, no rose for you There’s pain within the movement I’m standing still so my mistakes can catch up to me Aren’t I your son? Do you raise your fist against me? Even an injured bird won't accept water from me I’m plagued Take, take what you can Take in one hand put it in the other Knowing damn well he’s not my brother Knowing damn well he’s not my blood He’s not the one you seek I’ve been deceived Look at the color of my skin (I’ve been in the sun) away from this Love - love is never fleeting
