Marco's shadow falls on the door 
To the seven lost cities of gold 
Finds a raven's head and rattler snake's tail 
Dead in his tracks, this godforsaken soul's 
Unwanted here and his ghost lingers for years 

Amalia's face hides behind the mask 
Sweating on the tv factory line 
That smile on her face is starting to crack 
While welding back the pieces of shattered heart 
That's scattered out here, with the ghosts of her peers
Searched for her lost love along the river of tears 
The river of tears 

The end of the working week 
When [bad word] worlds meet 
Both sides keeping a close eye 
For a break in the line here
On the crystal frontier
The crystal frontier 

The ground is shaking it's starting to crack
Can't find the pieces of shattered heart 
That's scattered out here
With the ghosts that never disappear
Searched for the lost child along the river of tears 
The river of tears 

Blood spills out on the streets 
And bodies are missing for weeks 
Both sides keeping a close eye 
Watching the bullets fly here
On the crystal frontier 
The crystal frontier 

Ramón tightens up his leather belt 
And slips through a hole in the fence 
He can get you anything you want 
Might cost you a life, might cost you 
The whole price of freedom here
On the crystal frontier
