"The Oldest House" lyrics

"The Oldest House"

Keeping silent while I'm weeping
In a room that's not our own
I can feel it in my gut
Our home was built on sand, not stone
You struggle as you speak
I can see your lack of wanting
Foundation starts to creek
The cracks begin to taunt me

Breach the walls
Like leaves, they fall
The locks have changed, the deed's been lost
So we'll breach the walls

[?]

I feel so run-down, derelict enough to go
Our love is sundown, a house now overgrown
You know I'm sorry that I built a gate so tall
A selfish [?] there's graffiti on the walls

[?]

Breach the walls
Like leaves, they fall
The locks have changed, the deed's been lost
So we'll breach the walls

I should've been there for you, I could've listened
I know that any amount of attention would've made a difference
I should've been there for you, I could've listened
I know that any amount of attention would've made a difference
