When there is nothing else

We must remind ourselves

That life is transient

To breathe the ambience

So when we reach the end

Do we wake up again?

And if I say my prayers

Will you be waiting there?

I'm fading with the daylight

To skies of grey

I'm waiting on the cosmos

To call my name

And someday it will

Oh, someday it will

I'm sick of writing sad songs to hide

My shame

Cause I need more than drugs to escape My pain

But someday I will

I might give a little

But you can take it all

I might try to run

But just to make you follow

I like it when you

Grip, grip, grip

(I like it when you)

This roof keeps me dry when the rain falls.

This door helps to keep the cold at bay.

On this floor, I can stand on my own two feet.

On this chair, I can write my lessons.

On this pillow, I can dream my nights away.

And, this table, as you can see,

Well, it's perfect for tea.

It isn't much, but it is enough for me.

It isn't much, but it is enough.

On these walls, I hang wonderful pictures.

Through this window, I can watch the seasons change.

By this lamp, I can read, and I - I am set free.

And when it's cold outside, I feel no fear.

Even in the winter storms, I am warmed

By a small but stubborn fire,

And there is nowhere I would rather be.

It isn't much, but it is enough for me. (x 2)

For...

This is my house. (x 2)

It isn't much, but it is enough for me.

This is my house. (x 2)

It isn't much, but it is enough.

(Don't cry...)

And when it's cold and bleak,

(Please don't cry...)

I feel no fear.

Even in the fiercest storms,

(Please don't cry...)

I am warmed by this small and stubborn fire.

(Let me wipe away your tears...)

Even when outside it's freezing,

(Forgive me. I didn't want to desert you.)

I don't pay much heed.

(I know that I hurt you...)

I know that everything I need is in here.

My body sinks to the bottom, you were the last one to know

Never needed a home, but had nowhere else to go

Now I'm drifting to pieces, time is slipping away

Always thought you would end up finding a reason to stay

In this house I built for you

All our plans would follow suit

You'd forget who you had been and finally give in

Is it too late to go back down that road?

Or take the backroads, we're not the same no

Tell me I'm not dreaming again

Our love is not a ghost, our love is not a ghost

I am the house that's built upon sand

I am the thought that you couldn't plan

What was it like to feel in love?

What was it like to feel in love?

I'm the escape to something that's worse

I am the shadow driving the hearse

What was it like to feel in love?

I know you feel alone, yeah, and no one else can figure you out

But don't you ever turn away from the ones that help you down

Well they'd love to save you, don't you know they love to see you smile?

But these colors that you've shined are surely not your style

But you should know these colors that you're shining are

Surely not the best colors that you shine

The night will hold us close and the stars will guide us home

I've been waiting for this moment, we're finally alone

I turn to ask the question, so anxious, my thoughts

Your lips were soft like winter, in your passion, I was lost

As the hours pass

I will let you know

That I need to ask

Before I'm alone

How it feels to rest

On your patient lips

To eternal bliss
