The Shack is Falling Down
The shack is falling down,
where the ungrateful one lived,
only the old tub remains,
all the plaster and the lime,
the wind took it away.
The shack is falling down,
the roof is hanging by a thread,
no matter how hard I try to forget,
I come back and start to cry,
with no hope of you returning.
The cans and the beams,
everything's come undone,
there are no flowers or vines,
like before you left,
and abandoned everything.
You're falling down, shack,
and I'm dying with you,
tequila and mezcal,
don't ease my pain,
because you are my punishment.
The shack is falling down,
the posts have broken,
the beam and the crossbeams,
with the passing of the years,
everything has rotted away.
The cans and the beams,
everything's come undone,
there are no flowers or vines,
like before you left,
and abandoned everything.
