Lyrics
we tackled this project
without enough respect
and saw the warning signs
we laughed them off
thought it would be fine
we were wasting time
it's our fault
you say things will always be the same
I'm not sure that's true
'cause all our silly dreams
have gone and scattered all around
it seems this house we've built
has gone and fallen to the ground
knew the brakes could go
we weren't worried though
if it was right or not
who would've thought
thought it would be fine
we were wasting time
it's our fault
you say you can make this better
I'm not sure this time
'cause all our silly dreams
have gone and scattered all around
it seems this house we've built
has gone and fallen to the ground
I wont believe what you say anymore
'cause all our silly dreams
have gone and scattered all around
it seems this house we've built
has gone and fallen to the ground
