Along The Tracks

lyrics:

From the shadow...into the light.
Dusk of day...and into the night.
I hold my heart, like a bomb.
Never know...when it could go off!

The execution blues
I know now what I do
depends on how I choose.
It's a part of life...
gotta get it right.
(oohhhhh...)

Erase the slate
till I'm reborn
still the same...but only reformed.
I take a breath
like the doctors say.
focus on the path
careful not to stray...

The execution blues
(ooooh)
I know now what I do
depends on how I choose.
It's a part of life...
gotta get it right.
gotta get it right.
gotta get it right.

(end.)

Still Breathing... in a Dying World

GODZILLA

Something tells me this song is well... it's necessary for this time in America. Something about old, rich people using us like pawns and consumable resources.

INTO THE SUN

Just a bum, bumming around. 
“The American police are involved in psychological warfare against those Americans who don’t frighten them with imposing papers and threats. It’s a Victorian police force; it peers out of musty windows and wants to inquire about everything, and can make crimes if the crimes don’t exist to its satisfaction. ‘Nine lines of crime, one of boredom,’ said Louis-Ferdinand Céline.”
—From Jack Kerouac's “On the Road” (1957) 
In that context, I believe it means that one out of every 10 criminal offenses is a trumped up charge by a police officer with nothing better to do.
