Tension Lyrics

10,000 Maniacs

Frail hinges pivot on A cases door, commemorative Souvenirs from places Containers change, each occasion
Cellophane encased Displaying paper certificate The credit years of service A tool of central enterprises
The early hope for permanence The words the rings, consistency And social security The miracles, high tragedy
A thought mistaken for a memory Dress lengths, assassinations Fractured family ties And christenings
Local posts they list your friends In order, disappearance Lawn scattered tins, feed birds The portion baked for absent guests
And the mass edition icon God sent comfort, your salvation But who grants absolution For sins that never were committed?
Tension makes a tangle of Each thought becomes inconvenience Sound doesn't ever penetrate As servile edges break and faint
A thought mistaken for a memory Clear the dust from smiles in boxes Cross a patterned wall Recall the voices
A thought mistaken for a memory Dress lengths, assassinations Fractured family ties And christenings and christenings All fractured family ties And christenings
And christenings
