Uninvited Guest

Rusted shells in salvage yards
Like a metal house of cards
And the dogs are 24 hour guards
Power poles and lives unclaimed
River’s high from all the rain
Through the window of this slow
Moving train
Yesterday the sun was warmer
Yesterday the world seemed blessed
Now i wake up every morning like an
Uninvited guest
On the telephone with you
Looking for a word that’s true
Y’know the one that never seems to
Get through it can heal the deepest
Sore but no one told you that before
So you turned love into your own private
War yesterday a song made me smile
My heart beat time inside my chest
Now i wake up every morning like an
Uninvited guest
Yesterday the flowers were sweeter
Y’know i didn’t mind getting dressed
Now i wake up every morning like an
Uninvited guest
In soft melodic measures
You rounded off the edges
And couldn’t see my aim was true
Now all your threads of doubt
Have sewn me inside out
And keep me far away from you
Yesterday the grass was greener
I could even lie down and rest
Now i wake up every morning…
You might as well be speaking underwater
When i hear «it's all for the best»
All i know is everyday i feel
More like an uninvited guest
