Intruder

You come around here

Trying to make your demand.

You?ve got a need, darling,

I?ve seen it grow and expand.

Yeah, you want to reveal my life

With your own two hands.

Well, tell me now

What are you trying to do ?

Those holes in your life

Show what you require.

You?re needin? new eyes,

Oh Lord, honey take any wire ?

Yeah you?ve gotta save us all

Before the next big fire.

Tell me now

What are you trying to do ?

Walked in my life,

Child, and I don?t even know your name.

You put others around behind ya

As if they were lame.

You insist a simple feeling

Will be all the same.

Well, tell me now

What are you trying to do ?

Now I look like I?m suffering,

N-n-n-n-n-n-now I?m doing fine.

One look at yourself baby,

Child, I got you alive.

Yeah, you?re gonna take care of yours,

I?ll take care of mine.

What are you trying to do ?

Hey!
