Impossible House

See the lines in the field as they curve away from you

As the rows go flashing by

They say the signs will reveal it, but they hardly ever do

And I know that can't be right

See, I was steadily moving

But now I'm steady standing still

So clearly set up to fail

I have to wonder what you're after

I see the lake in the evening

As it's dripping off your skin

And I try to hold it tight

I try to shake off that feeling

But it just keeps slipping in

Like the day into the night

I been seeing you suffering

And I see you suffering still

You have to take it apart

You have to make this matter

You have made an impossible house

You have made an impossible house

You have made an impossible house

You have made an impossible house

I took a look at the cards

And I laid them out for you

Just a captain doomed to drown

I went and pulled the alarm

And it played around the room

You were laughing at the sound

Went to your palace and hid

As the thieves approached the throne

Like that McCallister kid

You have been left at home alone

You have made an impossible house

You have made an impossible house

You have made an impossible house

You have made an impossible house

I've seen your black limousine

Rolling slowly through the alley

All long and shiny and mean

With a license plate that just says "Nasty"

You have made an impossible house

You have made an impossible house

You have made an impossible house

You have made an impossible house
