"Board Up" lyrics

"Board Up"

Build the house with our own four hands
Hopes and dreams instead of plans
Buy a rug just to hide the dirt
Never knew how much your work could hurt

Build the walls up around ourselves
Put the windows in their place
Lock the roof down to keep us warm
We forgot the door, is it supposed to be that way?

Never knew the toll that time would take
Our name is all that stayed the same
Earthquake shakes me to my core
Never been this scared before

We built the walls up around ourselves
Put the windows in their place
Lock the roof down to keep us warm
We forgot the door, but it's supposed to be that way

Board up the windows
I need no escape
Board up the windows
I need no escape
Board up the windows
I need no escape
Board up the windows
I need no escape

Some think the door is better left open
But I think that love is best when it's closed in
