Cloudstreet (Acoustic)
This room
This flaking ceiling feels like home
But not the kind I've known
And I'll never lay my head to rest
Knowing what these walls could show.
"We tried our best" she said
"And we took it on
But this time the battle was lost, well before it had begun for us"
Even when you're here the house feels empty
Like I'm talking to nobody
Because the world revolves around you
Like it always seems to do
This house is always screaming and I can't get to sleep
When I do it finds a way inside of all my dreams
This house is always breathing, exhaling painfully
This house will always haunt me, it knows everything that we have done
Even when you're here the house feels empty
Like I'm talking to nobody
Because the world revolves around you
Like it always seems to do
Even when you're here the house is quiet
While outside the streets they riot
Watch the walls collapse around you
As the silence buries you
This room
This flaking ceiling feels like home
But not the kind I've known
And I'll never lay my head to rest
My thoughts will always roam
Even when you're here the house feels empty
Like I'm talking to nobody
Because the world revolves around you
Like it always seems to do
Even when you're here the house is quiet
While outside the streets they riot
Watch the walls collapse around you
As the silence buries you
This flaking ceiling feels like home
But not the kind I've known
And I'll never lay my head to rest
Knowing what these walls could show.
"We tried our best" she said
"And we took it on
But this time the battle was lost, well before it had begun for us"
Even when you're here the house feels empty
Like I'm talking to nobody
Because the world revolves around you
Like it always seems to do
This house is always screaming and I can't get to sleep
When I do it finds a way inside of all my dreams
This house is always breathing, exhaling painfully
This house will always haunt me, it knows everything that we have done
Even when you're here the house feels empty
Like I'm talking to nobody
Because the world revolves around you
Like it always seems to do
Even when you're here the house is quiet
While outside the streets they riot
Watch the walls collapse around you
As the silence buries you
This room
This flaking ceiling feels like home
But not the kind I've known
And I'll never lay my head to rest
My thoughts will always roam
Even when you're here the house feels empty
Like I'm talking to nobody
Because the world revolves around you
Like it always seems to do
Even when you're here the house is quiet
While outside the streets they riot
Watch the walls collapse around you
As the silence buries you
