Lyrics
There's a fire in this house
And there's no one left to notice with the breath to put it out
There's a weakness in these walls
And the truth hides in the echoes and the whispers in the halls
Saying all we've ever known we learned here
There's a smoke that fills our lungs
And we suffer in the silence wondering why we didn't run
Feel the cracks let out the heat
Stealing all the oxygen forbidding us to speak
Still all we've ever known we learned here
And all we thought was home will burn here
But maybe in the ashes we will find the meaning
And maybe as they scatter they'll lead us to the healing
Waking in a fever the daylight is deceiving
And darling though you woke me hard we'd been oversleeping
Everything thats burning... was everything to us
There's a fire you tried to hide
But you let it in our home
You tainted everything inside
Though the mess cannot be seen
I'm still standing in the wreckage
I'm still longing for a piece of
All we've ever known and learnt here
'Cause all we thought was home will burn here
But maybe in the ashes we will find the meaning
And maybe as they scatter they'll lead us to the healing
Waking in a fever the daylight is deceiving
And darlin though you woke me hard we'd been oversleeping
But I don't think I'm learning
And I don't think we change
Now we know that wisdom never really came with age
And everytime I think that maybe we could put it out
Everytime I try to fight the fire in this house
Well my mind paints a picture 'cause my minds never free
My mind shows the things that my eyes weren't supposed to see
There's a fire in this house
And there's no one left to notice with the breath to put it out
