Black & Blue

When the west was won When I ran for fun When I jumped the gun When the world I knew was kind to you Never black and blue Face the ones you know Taught you how to grow Made you star the show Make make a case for love Wake the sleepers up Wake the sleepers up Oceans of borrowed time A thousand ways to rhyme This world was never mine So many faces Made to fit the crime Freed to fall behind Chains you can't deny So many voices Breaking from the war The air that wears them sore The stains their sisters wore From all the hate
