Lyrics

Crude little wooden idols and aviator shades
 The trinkets and the treasures we brought back from the crusades
 Some guy in an Impala shakes his head when he rides by
 But I remember when we shared a vision, you and I
 Worked hard to build this altar we made it earn its keep
 The cracks across its surface spiderweb while we're asleep
 The sacrificial stains all spread out and soaking through
 But I remember when we kept it pretty, me and you
 And high above the water the eagle spots the fish
 Every martyr in this jungle is gonna get his wish
 Stockshots, stupid stockshots from the Pamona mall
 Set up like unloved icons gathering dust up on the wall
 From films no one remembers they call down silently
 But I remember when their names were dear to you and me
 Pennies on the dollar everything's gotta go
 The things that we can't even give away I don't wanna know
 Try to see if secrets burn when you hold them up into the light
 I remember when we loved each other day and night
 And high above the water the eagle spots the fish
 Every martyr in the jungle is gonna get his wish
