Calexico - Calavera

In my younger days devil call my name
Dealt me my cards, saw through my game
It wasn't enough to keep me in line
Now here I am spending all my time

On the other side trying to make it up
On the other side never could wake up
Bring back to life all the years I tried
Now here I am nearly half alive

On the other side faraway from home
On the other side living all alone
While the world's gone wrong… calavera
Gone wrong… calavera
While the world's gone wrong… calavera
Keep sleep-walking back… calavera

On the other side going outta my head
Another lost soul like I was dead
I found a skull and it called my name
No world of good could bring you back again
While your world's still gone wrong…
While the world's gone wrong
You keep sleep-walking back

Black cat crawls, arrows fall
St Augustine's bell ringing down the hall
Lovers leap by the light of the moon
All soul's day is looming and it's coming round soon
To calavera… calavera

While the world's gone wrong… calavera
Calavera… calavera
Devil call my name… calavera… calavera
While the world's gone wrong… calavera… calavera
Devil call my name… calavera
