Matthew Santos - Intruder Alert lyrics

rate me

She said, "There was no love in her heart"

'Cause one day, a rapist attacked her and broke that all apart

She said, "There was no way to fix it or to cover her scars"

Then one day a guy came along that probably could help her start

He was sincere made her believe it was safe for her to trust again

Before long, she was cool with givin' hugs to him

Knew that it was right, 'cause somethin' was wrong

The alarms in her mind didn't tell her he didn't belong there was no

Intruder, intruder, intruder, intruder

Alert, alert, alert, alert

Intruder, intruder, intruder, intruder

Alert, alert, alert, alert

He said, "Nobody else ever loved him"

That's why, he get high enough to go touch the heavens above him

Vividly remembers every pipe, every needle that stuck him

Every alley he ever slept in, every purse that he snuck in

Every level of hell he's been to, and the one that he's stuck in

No wonder he can't escape, even though it's of his own construction

Maybe you can relate, maybe you just one of those that just doesn't

Maybe he doesn't care, loves to allow these demons to come in with no

Intruder, intruder, intruder, intruder

Alert, alert, alert, alert

Intruder, intruder, intruder, intruder

Alert, alert, alert, alert

Famine strikin' his home-land and no social standin'

And the economic peckin' order

Emergency relief distribution systems is in disorder

He's checkin' water, makin' sure it's safe enough for his daughter

To float across in the boat he built

Hopefully strong enough to support her

Prayin' border patrols don't catch her ass

Process and deport her

Before she reach the shore, of the land of the free

Where they feed you, treat you like equals

Deceive you, stamp you and call you illegal

And there's an

Intruder, intruder, intruder, intruder

Alert, alert, alert, alert

Intruder, intruder, intruder, intruder

Alert, alert, alert, alert

There's someone here and it's not me how could this be?

I locked my doors, get my armies on my shore

They pulled my rockets and my sky, I'm so fortified

I built my wall so high, so why oh why are there?

Intruder, intruder, intruder, intruder

Intruder, intruder, intruder, intruder

Intruder, intruder, intruder, intruder
