ABOUT THIS SONG
//I took inspiration from a Hopi legend, although it has nothing to do with Jim Younger, even if he traveled a lot! But this legend explains how people can become "two hearts"... that means not sincere, with evil thoughts - they can be bewitched by other "two hearts", or be themselves drawn by their own evil spirits. Thanks to Don C. Talayesva, and his autobiography (Sun Chief)!//

lyrics

I was marked by evil spirits, they lurked inside me
Rocks and valleys, rivers and mountains
Unveiled right before my eyes

Twisted two-hearts looked at me
And made me of their kind
Twisted two-hearts looked at me
And made me of their kind

I remember how my father was killed on a dusty road
'cause he was born on the wrong side of the border
He was left there alone

I remember my house on fire, Children shouting outside
Dogs are barking, my mother's crying
I left and never came back

Twisted two-hearts looked at me
And made me of their kind
Twisted two-hearts looked at me
And made me of their kind

I was marked by evil spirits, they lurked inside me
Rocks and valleys, rivers and mountains
Unveiled right before my eyes

The two-hearts took me in their underworld
And I won't see the sun no more
The two-hearts took me in their underworld
And I won't see the sun no more

I won't see the sun no more
I won't see the sun no more...
