The House That You Built
Time and again you said: it's all the same
But these walls look bigger than ever before
After collecting debris of the day
I'm counting the steps from my heart to your door
In each and every room I play the same game
All of your things, from the roof to the floor
Have become smaller and, screaming your name
They'll turn into dust, just dust and nothing more
Do you remember when we were young?
We used to scream at the top of our lungs
And I know it seems I forget
But it didn't look that late yet
Oh, darkness haunts the light
I know it's nobody's guilt
A million prayers were said tonight
In the house that you built
Ooh, darkness haunts the light
Baby, it's nobody's guilt
A million prayers were said tonight
In the house that you built
In the house that you built
The ghost of the night falls on our backs
It's silent and lonely when we just can't see
And even together, we bend and we crack
To the unknown that's ahead you and me
But, I am told the darker it gets
The brighter the new day's gonna be
So, I'll dream of the kid you used to put to bed
And how you brought him up to sing his own way free
Do you remember when we were young
We ran and screamed at the top of our lungs?
And I know it seems I forget
But I guess it's not too late yet
Oh, darkness haunts the light
I know it's nobody's guilt
A million prayers were said tonight
In the house that you built
Oh, darkness haunts the light
Baby, it's nobody's guilt
One prayer was hummed tonight
In the house that you built
In the house that you built
In the house that you built
But these walls look bigger than ever before
After collecting debris of the day
I'm counting the steps from my heart to your door
In each and every room I play the same game
All of your things, from the roof to the floor
Have become smaller and, screaming your name
They'll turn into dust, just dust and nothing more
Do you remember when we were young?
We used to scream at the top of our lungs
And I know it seems I forget
But it didn't look that late yet
Oh, darkness haunts the light
I know it's nobody's guilt
A million prayers were said tonight
In the house that you built
Ooh, darkness haunts the light
Baby, it's nobody's guilt
A million prayers were said tonight
In the house that you built
In the house that you built
The ghost of the night falls on our backs
It's silent and lonely when we just can't see
And even together, we bend and we crack
To the unknown that's ahead you and me
But, I am told the darker it gets
The brighter the new day's gonna be
So, I'll dream of the kid you used to put to bed
And how you brought him up to sing his own way free
Do you remember when we were young
We ran and screamed at the top of our lungs?
And I know it seems I forget
But I guess it's not too late yet
Oh, darkness haunts the light
I know it's nobody's guilt
A million prayers were said tonight
In the house that you built
Oh, darkness haunts the light
Baby, it's nobody's guilt
One prayer was hummed tonight
In the house that you built
In the house that you built
In the house that you built
