I Mississippi You (2005)

Lyrics:

We make so many promises and we keep hardly any.

The least that we can say for ourselves is that we can laugh

And we can cry and we can steal what we need.

And we're just as scared as anyone else struggling for sense.

We've spent so many whole nights tearing the world limb from limb.

And finding nothing but ourselves, and that's what scares us most of all.

But when we're walking under streetlights

We know these buildings could never be as beautiful as us.

Huddled by the shortwave, cheering on the B.L.A.

We cried for the ones at Ludlow and wrote songs about those

Beautiful months in 1871.

And I'd like to think we've done our best.

We've been scared many a-time, but we've never given in.

Rosa was a four-piece folk punk band from Houston, Texas. Their latest release, I Mississippi You was released on Plan-It-X Records.
