Lyrics
If home is where the heart is
Mine is vacant, falling down
Dust encrusted boxes
Faded pictures on the wall
Only
The blur of lines are seen
Tarnished frames remain
On cracked and peeling paint
Did you love me
Or just want to be
The star of my memory
From center stage
You played the part so well
Now your ghost stands in your place
You brought the house down
You brought the house down
Chunks of plaster fall to the floor
Like bones slowly break
Splintered wood from all my tears
Left damage in their wake
I thought
Our love cemented fast
But hard sand doesn't last
So now I'm forced to ask (ask ask)
Did you love me
Or just want to be
The star of my memory
From center stage
You played the part so well
Now your ghost stands in your place
You brought the house down
You brought the house down
And you still bring the house down around me
And you still bring the house down around me
Did you love me
Or just want to be
The star of my memory
From center stage
You played the part so well
Now your ghost stands in your place
You brought the house down
You brought the house down (as an echo)
Can I build again
Or am I beyond repair
Is anything worth saving
I'm afraid to even dare
Someone like you might come along
And tear it down again
Without a second thought
And it would be
My end
