She was a dead stop, overhauled
Couldn't ever take it, so she'd just take off
So close behind were the things she'd seen
If she tried to tell you, you would not believe
Floating like a barge down the Tennessee
It's getting even harder every time she leaves
They drain the river and she don't know why
Couldn't ever leave even if she tried
The house is falling in the river, can you hear it?
There's cracks in the ceiling, I know that you're leaving
I can feel it
I could never change your mind
Never could I change your mind
Built like a last chance out of town
Amnesty is not one to wait around
Don't gotta go but you can not stay
Absolution just a word away
The house is falling in the river, can you hear it?
There's cracks in the ceiling, I know that you're leaving
I can feel it
I could never change your mind
Never could I change your mind
I could never change your mind
Never could I change your mind
