About picking up and starting over...

lyrics

Highlight this plight and make the case; reach out to peek.

This house can't be brought down. You can't destroy the karma of a lovely day ending in doubt, hardship then you laughed.

It needs to come down, It must come down, this needs to end, it must fall.

This house,
bring down these walls,
tear out these beams,
either not aught.
In this house.

Every day that passes, every dream I see, can only connect me.

I the light I could only see blades of commotion, motion, grief and defeat.

This house is cold and blue.
These walls hold me in.
These beams remind me of the time when I was tall and thin.

And I will move, start anew, maybe live out in the mountains or a cluttered city, where it's easy to disappear.

You can tell a sure thing from something that pushes back then brings you serenity.

Oh

Pull up this house, in this lane, down this road.
leave behind the pain and all the days of

love.

Chorus Repeat
