Dewey Kincade

Lyrics

She was a silent assassin
She could kill with what she wouldn’t say
And you could feel it from a thousand miles away
She was the piece of a puzzle he couldn’t complete
He was trying to cash in
But the money was always uncertain
It was always behind one of two curtains
But he only wound up with a desperate need
For another chance
Out of the borderlands

They were once in a zoo
They got caught on the wrong side of the cages
Wild animals seized with hungry rages
Trying to eat them alive if they stepped ‘cross the line
So they never slept
There was nothing but tossing and turning
In the flicker of the capitols burning
And the only thing that was clearly defined
Was that they could not stand
In the borderlands.

Remember that no matter where you stand
A single step will take you to another land

I can see them so clearly
It’s almost as if I was him
Held hostage by an angel’s whim
And you were the girl in the tower on high
But I’ve been lost out at sea
Trying not to get swallowed by the ocean
Sucked down into perpetual motion
Still thinking I can break through to the other side
But you shouldn’t make plans
In the borderlands
