lyrics

Cross the border cross the line
Cross the basis for no time
Cross the stasis of not if but when

That’s the way we stay defeated
That’s the way we’ve lie and cheated
That’s the reason we seem so cross again

Pass the test to bury me
Forget the past to stop the bleeding
Erase the past to set you free again
Pass the test to bury me
Forget the past to stop the bleeding
That’s the reason we study history

Errands run and soon distorted
Errant exports of the soon reported
Lazy accounts of debates on if we have won

Close the past on re-entry burn
Close to last and negative return
Now let’s cash that check and that project’s done

That’s the way we’ve loved and hated
They way we stay negated
That’s the way we finally bit our tongue
