Intrusions Songtext

von Chris Eckman

I was down to my three last straws
When your sister came
And took your pictures off the walls

And the nails left hangin'
Was all I saw
The nails left hangin'
Hangin' on the wall

I won't change anything
I'd just change everything
I won't change anything
I'd just change everything

I didn't know, that intrusions
Had been planned
But I'll make the best of them
Kill everything I can

If you think my protests
Are in vain and thinly veiled
You haven't been here
You haven't watched a past impaled

Refrain
Down to my seven worthy sins
I feel your vacancy
Your gaze across my skin

I feel your triumphs
Guess they're finally sinkin' in

Underneath the viaduct
You parked your car
I watched you swim

I remember you grateful
As you were comin up for air

I remember you graceful
Sad wings were floatin' there
