GUNFIRE BLUES

What Am I doing here?

Remembering all of you
and the torture in my soul… called
the gunfire blues!

Deep South
and faraway

Where the hell did you go… Bro?

Am I always gonna be…
All alone?
deep in the ‘shit city’ blues… Bro?

Alone?

Seein’ the sliders… and the fools
the lies… that sleep with schools!

No more Bro!
Bravery!
No more dyin’
Bro!

Just fuckin’ lies Bro!
I fought hard as you
and we lost it

lost it all!

I Fuckin’ lost myself Bro!

Where do I go
Bro?

Where do I go?

… toward home?
