Stuck in the bordertown
Stand at the wall
Say grass is always greener
But he can’t find any green at all
Snow fallin’ on cedars
Know it’s time to get out of here
Flying south for the winter
Cept’ in the southern hemisphere, ohhhhh
No refuge in memories
The future is dark
He prays for shining light
But there’s barely a spark
He closes a chapter
His love is no more
Gave her all of his riches
Now he’s left with the poor
His bones break like rusted nails
His heart aches to no avail
No shoes on those wanderin’ feet
All he sees is an endless street
His bones break like rusted nails
His heart aches to no avail
No shoes on those wanderin’ feet
All he sees is an endless street
He tries with fervor
Still stallin’ at start
Like those epic tragedies
Now he’s filling the part
Faith falls out of favor
Little left here but fear
Screams till his lungs are bare
He’s just hoping they’ll hear
His bones break like rusted nails
His heart aches to no avail
No shoes on those wanderin’ feet
All he sees is an endless street
His bones break like rusted nails
His heart aches to no avail
No shoes on those wanderin’ feet
All he sees is an endless street
Promise these wounds will heal
There little left here of this ordeal
Believe you gone make this right
You’ll finally end this plight
