Aerie
Well we pounded the pavement betwee
dotted line
But we always belonged to th
fugitive kin
We were never the best but we wer
better than thi
To be made to bow down among prince
I got thrown around hallways an
bedrooms and town
And you run from that voice an
it drags you aroun
It don't matter the ruse or th
weapons we choos
There is only one thing that can free u
Oh so here I a
The lion and the lam
I was born to be telling this stor
I could only be telling this stor
I will always be telling this stor
Well our father married ou
mother too youn
And he took on a world like
fortunate so
But in the cellar downstairs waitin
for the bomb scar
He would hide from us under the kitche
Where she simmered so soft wit
her weapons of ti
And like so many suppers she jus
gave us to hi
And he never did guess in her cas
iron dres
She was burning beyond recognitio
Oh it's not over ye
I can't forge
I am going to be telling this stor
I was born to be telling this stor
I will always be telling this stor
Sometimes I feel so reckless and wil
Sometimes I feel like a motherless chil
I gave nobody life, I am nobody's wif
And I seem to be nobody's daughte
So red is the color that I like the bes
It's your Indian skin and the badg
on my ches
The heat of my prid
The lips of a brid
The sad heart of the trut
And the flag of yout
And blood that is thicker than wate
I was made to be telling this stor
I was born to be telling this stor
I am going to be telling this stor
I could only be telling this stor
I will always be telling this story
