I’ve watched this house turn to boxes
and empty bookshelves.
I’ve seen their eyes turn grey,
and it’s not from dust,
it’s not from age.
I’ve watched this house (turn)
I’ve watched this house turn to boxes
I’ve seen your eyes turn grey
and it’s not from dust
it’s not from age
I’ve watched this house (turn)
I’ve watched this house turn to boxes
I’ve seen your eyes turn grey
I’ve seen
I’ve seen
You said i was lucky
i had these four walls
with the word ‘love’
etched into every single one.
We all know paint peels and
Even we wake up one day
to every single wall
left bare and empty.
left bare and empty
you said i was lucky
left bare and empty
you said i was lucky
Now the locks are broken,
the doors left wide open,
the thresholds have turned cold since
we last crossed them
This house is a home
to whomever wants it-
Friends, put your hands together,
build yourselves a home-
Don’t matter where you’re going
or where you’re from,
Friends, put your hands together,
build yourselves a home-
Family is the blood
you choose to call your own
