lyrics

In the woods about an hour past the street
there is a house, nobody lives there.
Maybe just a cabin indiscreet,
the siding is a pigment lost in me.
The door is weak and you bust it in.
The siding is rusted and paper thin.
The chimney is filled with soot and tar,
when the floor caves in I can take its part.

Sometimes you wanna burn it down, but the memories keep it alive.
Sometimes you wanna burn it down.

When the winter comes yeah you'll close it up,
cause the fireplace isn't strong enough.
The the windows won't keep out the wind,
when the snow comes down it'll blow them in.

Sometimes you wanna burn it down, but the memories keep it alive.
Sometimes you wanna burn it down.

What do you think as the trees scratch at your rooftops,
the animals and the storm outside your door?
Let them in, gonna let me in, gonna let me in?
or will you remember what you're fighting for?

I can't remember the last time I took a walk around the lake.
I wanna wade into the tide, the currents more than I can take.
What kept me safe is holding me back.
I have a strong foundation when the world shakes under me.
Hold steady, hold steady
I strive to be more than a picture on a shelf.
The same walls that kept me safe I am now tearing down myself.

Sometimes you wanna burn it down, but the memories keep it alive
Sometimes you wanna burn it down

What do you think as the trees scratch at your rooftops,
the animals and the storm outside your door?
Let them in, gonna let me in, gonna let me in?
or will you remember what you're fighting for?
