Una Llaga Podrida - La Cruz NorteÑa

Big city calling, I hear the echo outside There's something so frightening in this deep western sky I wish it was simple saying goodbye Comfort me later, for now let me cry Will cracks in the pavement bring me some sort of truth Will they find some way to remind me of you Will the train running eastbound help me remember my part Will this wish for release fill the holes in my heart The sky filled with phantoms in their towers of light And lovers so restless give themselves to the night If you cut me wide open and you looked deep inside Would you find something deeper than this worrying mind? This room is too empty and these streets are too wide And I don't have the patience for this pain to subside So I'm off to the land of litter and lights Where rats in the tunnels keep the ghosts up all night I'll learn the streets slowly, maybe find someone new We'll drink up the sunrise and wake up with the moon But I'm not so stupid, I'm not such a fool To think that I'll stop Stop thinking of you I'm not so stupid, I'm not such a fool To think that I'll stop Stop thinking of you

Are you counting those things again In hope that they get you in Pretending the wind is a breeze And letting your body freeze And if you ask yourself you could stop these wayward pleas So get up off of your knees No matter what your father said or the books you read Maybe you should save yourself instead We jumped at the count of nine But you still needed more time You jumped at the count of eighteen And let out a joyful scream And said now I can see But now you're just playing dead As you pray to be led But maybe you should save yourself instead

We wanted to implement a plan to cover the extent Of all the trials and tribulations we all underwent Whispering in alleyways, secret lines we'd never say To anyone who walks without a limp Planning for a time in which everyone else made the switch Deciding they would jump instead of run But something lodged itself into the gears that brought us all to you We pleaded to the night to take us home And when the evening light is fading We're still waiting for your wayward kiss And in the belly of the lion I am trying to remember what we missed We collected rabbit's feet, we screwed the land and sowed the sea We found the space between the borderlines We yelled our names over the noise, we saved the girls and drowned the boys We lay down and we waited for a sign And when the evening light is fading We're still waiting for you here on this road And in the belly of the lion I am trying to breathe through his nose

Cindy decided to leave her childhood diary under her bed She burned almost everything except for her wedding ring Because she threw that in the sea She hid in her neighbor's yard and watched as the fire scarred The house she never could leave It was the prettiest thing she thought she had ever seen A thing in which to believe Cindy walked down the street, the smell of the fire so sweet And she laughed through the smoke At the end of the block she made one last stop To make sure she had everything Awash in the beautiful sound of the old house burning down She opened her bag She could have sworn that she took her overdue library books But they were not to be seen A knowing smile crossed her face as she remembered the place Where she left them upstairs She slowly walked back down the street And into the burning debris She couldn't take on any more late fees

Come into vision And last Same psalm mother sung Drink from your flask And ask If anyone has a favorite And we'll sing We sing alone at the top of our lungs Voices ring Escape outside the cathedral I don't care What you *sing? But just do it in your old fashion way Slaping your knee As I said This one makes up for the city And we'll sing Sing alone at the top of our lungs Voices ring Escape outside the cathedral Some folks Just don't give a damn Whether they're coming or going Hey man Take a stand When you're up Put yourself back in place And coming when you hear the ovations Stations Fill up As we leavers Find the receivers Stealing from the beggars wife Here we go I don't know If there's any point to it all But I sure love hearing your voice Jordanna Jordanna Jordaaaannnnaaaaaa Jordanna! Jordanna! Jordannnnnaaaaa! (Ohohoh...) Some folks Just don't give a damn Whether they're coming or going Hey man Take a stand When you're up Put yourself back in place And coming when you hear the ovations Stations Fill up As we leavers Find the receivers Stealing from the beggars wife Here we go I don't know If there's any point to it all But I sure love hearing your voice

Yo tengo un nuevo amor El corazón me late sin parar Hay uno que me ha dicho Te amo de verdad Jesús mi amor y más que amor, mi dulce paz Yo tengo un nuevo amor Jamás imaginé poder hallar Aquel que le dio a mi vida Una razón para amar Jesús mi amor Y más que amor, mi dulce paz Siento que tengo ganas de volar al firmamento Gritarle al mundo entero lo que estoy sintiendo Que ya encontré mi dulce amor, Jesús es toda mi verdad Y nunca yo me cansaré de repetir hasta el final Y ahora yo tengo un nuevo amor (el corazón me late) El corazón me late sin parar (lo que me ha dicho) Hay uno que me ha dicho, te amo de verdad Jesús mi amor y más que amor mi dulce paz Yo tengo un nuevo amor (jamás imagine) Jamás imaginé poder hallar (aquel que le dio) Aquél que le dió a mi vida Una razón para amar Jesús mi amor y más que amor mi dulce paz Para amar, para amar, amo, Señor Su voz dulcísima en respuesta cuando llamo Sus ojos tiernos Hasta el toque de sus manos Por siempre suyo Por siempre suyo quiero ser Jesús es toda mi verdad Y nunca yo me cansaré, no De repetir hasta el final Que ahora yo tengo un nuevo amor(amor, amor, amor) Y el corazón me late sin parar Hay uno que me ha dicho: te amo de verdad Jesús mi amor, y más que amor, mi dulce paz Yo tengo un nuevo amor (Amor, amor, amor) Y jamás imaginé poder hallar Aquel que le dio Y aquel que le dio a mi vida Una razón para amar Jesús mi amor, y más que amor, mi dulce paz Creo
