South of the Border Lyrics


SOUTH OF THE BORDER

Swollen eyes of opiate see another lost soul on the road

Reflections of his own face painted on the thick skin of the toad

Months spent sleeping

In dirt and shingle

Sores wont stop bleeding

And the mind often lies

Love is all I took from you

Hate is all I leave

Blood is quick to wash away

And time is all I need to kill

Let the river take the lost and the sun reclaim the damned

Sink alone back into the Earth where the trail of man began

I alone now

Avenging angel

Family, a memory

And the only thought that drives me on

Love is all I took from you

Hate is all I leave

Blood is quick to wash away

And time is all I need to kill

Wrath become my only end

Pain will set me free

Loneliness my tired friend

And death become my bride to be

It’s close to over

His tired eyes, have seen

The closing border

Red horizon, cross of grey

Greets the hunted man

Turn to see, revenge is me

Bullets have a better plan
