"House On Fire" lyrics
Patrick Watson & Martha Wainwright Lyrics
"House On Fire"
I'll be wrong
And you be right
I don't mind
Because it's alright
I keep trying to see your side
Even though I just wanna hide
And we are words
And we are stones
This world stands still
While we are thrown
Where did all our love go
How'd your eyes gets so cold
You can wrap your truth
In ribbons and bows
But I just don't know how to be alone
And I'm a man made out of holes
Tell me something I don't already know
Tell me something I don't already know
I'll be wrong
You be right
I don't mind
I just want to make it right
Chairs could fly
The kids could cry
So why not light our house on fire
Our house is a very fine house
But it got harsh when it got night
You can take your hands
And cover your ears
Scream so loud the neighbours can hear
I don't wanna do
I don't wanna do this anymore
I'll be wrong
You be right
I don't mind
I just wanna make it right
I don't want
To be right
I just want to make it right
I was yours
You were mine
There was so much on the line
I keep trying to see your side
Even though I just wanna hide
I'll be wrong
You be right
I don't mind
I just wanna make it right
I can't see through all the tears
I can't see through all these years
Drank the rain
And bent to the sun
When we were young
Now we're counting down to when we can
Take the pictures off the wall
The portraits in the hall
When you walk out the door
I won't love you anymore
Can hear their voices call
(Can you hear)
(Can you hear those voices call)
Can you hear their voices call
For our love to break the fall
(For our love to break the fall)
For our love to break the fall
I'll be wrong
You be right
I don't mind
I just wanna just wanna make it right
For our love to break the fall
I'll be yours
You be mine
There was so much on the line
For our love to break the fall
I can't see through all the tears
I can't see through all the years
And I can't carry the weight of our lives
So I'm just gonna make this right
I can't see through all the tears
I can't see through all the years
And I can't carry the weight of our lives
So I'm just trying to make this right
I can't see through all the tears
I can't see through all the years
