lyrics

Eviction Day

You're emptying out your old bedroom
Packing up your life
one box at the time
You don't know how it's come to this
You did nothing wrong
But they say it is your fault
Tears they swell up in your eyes
When you think of the kids
And where they will sleep
You're victim of our times
We watch the system fail
Pray for better days

Never asked for anything at all
still they made you fall
And if you try to stand up tall
they'll come back for more

You thought life aint complicated
You did it by the book
like you thought you should
Good husband and three kids
House you could call home
You didn't ask for more
But at the turn of tide they laid him off
They blamed it on the times
Now he's running low on pride
The bank they called in the loans
when you couldn't pay
they took your home away
