cross the boarder-line
under a blood-red sky
watch the barbwire fences burn
rio-grande by day
is not so grand by night
need the tequila, salt and lime
watch the kids they play
one-hundred dead a day
a mother cries in streets on fire
follow city lights
and these highway signs
to the tequila, salt and lime
lay down mexico
lay down in mexico
lay down in these arms tonight
lay down mexico
lay down in mexico
lay down in these arms tonight
watch the fever rise
in a bloody tide
wash the fear away
sting like a spider bite
or like sand in the eyes
you need the tequila for the pain, tourniquet
lay down mexico
lay down in mexico
lay down in these arms tonight
lay down mexico
lay down in mexico
lay down in these arms tonight
lay down mexico

Track Name: Cry
work your fingers to the bone
walk the straight 'till you can relax
watch your worries fade away
a little more everyday
say what you can with these lips
you spread it around with a kiss
then you take what you can get
take it all for you
but it don't stop, the pain don't stop until you cry
it don't stop, the pain don't stop until you try
the world don't end, no it don't end until you die
it don't stop, the pain don't stop until you cry
work, work, work your fingers still
motion stops and everybody stares
your feelings fly just like you were innocent and high
baby get high
but it don't stop, the pain don't stop until you cry
it don't stop, the pain don't stop until you try
the world don't end, no it don't end until you die
it don't stop, the pain don't stop until you cry
no it don't stop
no it don't stop
no it don't stop yea
until you give it a try
until cry.

Track Name: Fire
this heat-wave is rising
white speed-lights colliding
she's burning on the inside
she's burning for the last time
white jet-streams igniting
turn crimson in the lightning
she's tired and tongue-tied
she's burning for the last time
she's on fire
and i'm fighting
she's on fire
and i'm dying
your soul is still craving
these streets and hard pavement
all romance is torture

you're a child of love
your a child, don't rue yourself
Track Name: Rain
she has a daring vampire slide
just like the feeling of being on thin ice
she doesn't feel shamed at all
she's got a feeling god is in control of the rain
she has a daring change of mind
just like the feeling of being hypnotized
she's feeling raped and torn
she got a feeling like being caught in the storm
she needs the rain
she needs a land-slide
she hides the pain
she'll keep it all inside
she makes a motion both hands held high
just like the feeling of being tongue-tied
she knows it's not what she did, damn it all
she's got a hope that god could wash away the sin
she needs the rain
she needs a land-slide
she hides the pain
she'll keep it all inside
she needs a land-slide right back to me
she needs a land-slide right back to me
she needs the rain
she needs a land-slide
she hides the pain
she'll keep it all inside
she'll keep it all insane

but like a machine he's built for pain
on the edge of the verge of you know everything

honestly, honestly she's a slave to this bell that calls her name
he's ahead of the race
he'd take take take it he'd take it all

honestly, honestly she's a slave to this bell that calls her name
honestly, honestly, honestly!

could be learned to save this one from treason

i believe it's love that pulls me back to you
no denying all these things i do
but love it pulls me back to you

'cause sin it hides inside since my conception
but you know me i need more than just your reasons
in the end of it all.

no denying all these things i do
but love it pulls me back to you
