The House

I'm so glad you made it
I never thought you'd come
The lights here are blinding
All of the smoke clogs my lungs

These walls remember
All that's said and done
And my heart has chambers
Where the sadness runs

You are the house and you keep us alive
You bring our straying hearts in from outside
Take all the furniture, take what you might
You can't take a hope that will not die

The party is over
I'd say it's time to go
The kooks in the back room
They won't leave until they know

We must remember
Don't let good times go
There's something to live for
It just comes 'round slow

You are the house and you keep us alive
You bring our straying hearts in from outside
Take all the furniture, take what you might
You can't take a hope that will not die

You are the house and you keep us alive
You bring our straying hearts in from outside
Take all the furniture, take what you might
You can't take a hope that will not die
I've been waiting and I've been a slave
I've been asleep, please remove these chains
Give me a reason, give me a sign
You can't take a hope that will not die.
