There's a shadow down the street
outlining a cold echo wherever it goes
in a dog, in a black dog.
within the smoke it appears by the bar
unaccompanied by Death1
because it made a deal in order to rule,
that dog appears to be
that dog appears to be a nagual2.
Run, jump, leap, jump the fence
should you hear the current
from the street that speaks to you,
and the sidewalk that's muttering
the words that are walking on,
on the walls look for the truth
they tell the truth, they tell the truth.
In the night...
A bark...3
in the dark corner of the municipal
through an echo in time,
a hand from the man in charge,
that are sold, that are bought
thoughts given to us to think on,
they are sought after, they are found
the questions one must ask.
It wants, wants, wants, wants everything
you want, want, want, to be loved.
You want, want, want to be adored
you want me to beg you,
I want the truth, I want the truth....
