Lyrics

The House


Rain falls shadows crawl and time remains upon the wall Minutes pass but the hour lasts
Footsteps echo down the hall, in the house where you were born rain falls

In the house where you were born there was no one who could tame you
or help you get along they were only there to chain you in the house where you were born

Silence speaks where shadows reach they come unbidden from the deep
They dance and tease and they offer keys to the secrets that they try to keep
In the house where you were born, welcome home

In the house where you were born there was no one who could tame you
or help you get along they were only there to blame you in the house where you were born



Chorus
In the house where you were born there was no one who could tame you
or help you get along they were only there to chain you
in the house where you were born

The house is made of paper cards, mirrored walls of glass
Framed with rules and made by fools and memories all passed the house is made of glass
the house is made of nothing but the past
the house is made of nothing, nothing, nothing, but the past

in the house where you were born
in the house where you were born
in the house where you were born
Welcome home
