LYRICS
A little girl lost her world full of pain
He said it feels good she gave him her vein
The dope made her numb and numb felt like free
Until she came down, down, down to a new misery
A junkie a whore living for the next high.
Shed lie cheat and steal she forgot how to cry
Wide awake for two weeks shooting heroin then speed
When she killed in cold, cold blood all she felt was her need
Its an eye for an eye now youre gonna die
A tooth for a tooth its your moment of truth.
Theres no mercy here your stay is denied
Go on and pray, pray, pray you find Mercy in the sky
Alone in her cell no dope in her veins
The killer had become the little girl lost again
She fell to her knees she prayed she would die
On the cold cement floor she finally cried
And love came like the wind love whispered her name.
Love reached through and held her love lifted her pain.
15 years on death row her faith deeper each day
Her last words were I love you all
Good-bye, Karla Faye
Now its an eye for an eye, youre gonna die
A tooth for a tooth its your moment of truth
Theres no mercy here your stay is denied
You better pray, pray, pray you find Mercy in the sky")

LYRICS
First you fall then you fly
And you believe that you belong up in the sky
Flap your arms, as you run
Every revolution brings you closer to the sun
You fall asleep in motion in uncharted hemispheres
You wake up with the stars falling down around your ears
When they hit the ground they’re nothing but stones
That’s how you learn to live alone
That’s how you learn to live alone
Bit by bit, you slip away
You lose yourself in pieces n the things that you don’t say
You’re not here, but you’re still there
Sun goes up, the sun goes down you’re not sure you care
You live inside the false till you don’t recognize the true
People send you pictures and you can’t believe it’s you
It’s been years since your house has felt like home
That’s how you learn to live alone
That’s how you learn to live alone
It don’t feel right, but it’s not wrong
It’s just hard to start again this far along
Brick by brick, the letting go
As you walk away from everything you know
You release resistance lean into the wind
Till the roof begins to crumble, the rain comes pouring in
You sit there in the rubble till the rubble feels like home
That’s how you learn to live alone
That’s how you learn to live alone")

LYRICS
Clouds are spreading like bruises on the evening sky
I walk the streets alone again tonight
It starts to rain still I search each passing face
Blood is blood and blood don’t wash away
Blood is blood and blood don’t wash away
When I was a child they told me she loved me too much
She didn’t keep me ‘cause my mama loved me too much
She left without a trail she left without a trace
But blood is blood and blood don’t wash away
Blood is blood and blood don’t wash away
I got a heart that’s ripped
I got a soul that’s torn
I got a hole in me like I was never born
Blood is thicker than water blood is bound by God
I don’t know who I am I don’t know who I’m not
I don’t know my name I can’t find my place
Blood is blood and blood don’t wash away
Blood is blood and blood don’t wash away
Blood is blood and blood don’t wash away
Blood is blood and blood don’t wash away
I walk the streets alone again tonight")
