Living in the borderland I don't feel like a boy, I don't feel like a man In the things I don't understand Things like love, like the law Like the law of the jungle Are we all animals Are we all animals sharpening Our teeth and claws Stocking up on cannonballs Living like nobody knows They can't hold on to love And live by the law, the law of the jungle Help me Holy Jesus Won't you show me how to live I've got monsters at my table I've got Bibles bent like shivs Help me Holy Lord I see the light of heaven's porch But so many of us are born here Outside your chain link fence Living in the borderland You gotta fend for yourself, Let the dogs eat the other man Living in the borderland You gotta take what you get, Gotta get what you can Are we all dangerous Are we all dangerous lost boys shoring up Pockets full of fairy dust Suffering the wanderlust They all get crushed without love By the law, the law of the jungle Living in the borderland Are you going to fight like a boy, Gonna run like a man Living in the borderland Gotta take what you get, Gotta get what you can But you can't hold on Can't hold on to love You can't hold on You can't hold on and live By the law
