Victims

Laugh so furiously out loud
like the victim you want to be
this night has been forgotten already
so much for these days we take

in my years, so little have I learned
often is my folly, my daring to know
never did I ever care so much
so much that I've gone sour

each day the sun rises over us
like a cheating child without desire
without a want for any real result
he's dumb from his parents neglect

No one knows these things
even when we should have learned them
even with our friends dying to tell us
or dying without the chance to say it

We're all laden with broken hearts
from the things we wanted to learn
the things we used to care about as children
now, we're adults without perspective

Where Have You Been

Where have you been my tiger
I've been here waiting for you
so often I thought that I saw you
so often, it only looked like you

Here we are, shining sun
fierce like the mountains
Those Costa Rican tico mountains
The ones that made us forget

Music, green music, paints on us
Spring or Summer so soon
I swear, don't cry, I see it
it'll release us soon

Babe, I know us, come free
It's time to stop.
let it all go, open up
Up into those blue white skies

It's time, time to be
don't ever let us stop
we are all we ever need
here without ourselves, to be
