Crystal Frontier lyrics

Marco's shadow falls on the door

To the 7 lost cities of gold

Finds a raven's head and rattlersnake's tail

Dead in his tracks, this godforsaken soul's

Unwanted here and his soul lingers for years

Amalia's face hides behind the mask

Sweating on the tv factory line

That smile on her face is starting to crack

While welding back the pieces of shattered heart

That's scattered out here, with the ghosts of her peers

Searches for her lost child along the river of tears

At the end of the working week

When drunken worlds meet

Both sides keeping a close eye

For a break in the line here...

On the crystal frontier

Blood spills out on the streets

And bodies are missing for weeks

Both sides keeping a close eye

Watching the bullets fly here...

On the crystal frontier

Ramón tightens up his leather belt

And slips through a hole in the fence

He can get you anything you want

Might cost you a life, might cost you

The whole price of freedom here...
