alberto hits his brother on the   back of the head, looks to the north   as he starts to get up   his brothers still sleepy   grumbles "it's not light yet,"   "if you want a new life, what's   a few minutes wait?"      darkness on the road and over the land   into the laws and out of the hands   from those with so much   and no show of heart   you'd think it'd be crazy   to ask for a small part      spotted an eagle in the middle of a lake   resting on cactus, feasting on snakes   but the waters recede as the    dump closes in, revealing a whole lake   of sleeping children      poison in the stream that flows to the sea   out on the waves that crash within reach   of those with so much   and so little to fear   you'd think it'd be crazy   to be so far away yet so near      some say a new day will shine here   over these catastrophes and horrors   of misfortune, all across the wire      Alberto y Hermano on the coyote's trail   and dodging the shadows of the border patrol   out in the wastelands wandering for days   the future looks bleak with   no sign of change      darkness in the eye and down   in the soul   all across the wire to those in control   holding so much   with no show of heart   you think it'd be crazy   to watch it all fall apart   watch it all fall apart
