lead me to the things I cannot see
I see lawyers and t-shirts and minnie balls menus and beers and holes in the walls I see residents sweeping the grime away I see horses and rappers in Chevrolets
I see snipers nests and old woodsheds I see enormous bellies and sun burned heads I see hospitals and nurses and volunteers I see lanterns that talk to arouse your fear
lead me to the things I cannot see
I see antique shops and real estate signs marching bands and young girl behinds soldiers running for their lives and a seething battalion of bored housewives
I see my grandfather's looking through the eyes of a gun I see the stars held back by a blood red sun I feel my wallet lighter but I walked that mile like to rest my head here for awhile
lead me to the things I cannot see
