lyrics

I fell asleep,
underneath the ceilings and the words you said to me.
Make this place,
to which you call your home your heart,
but don't be like the trees,
I know your roots run deep.
Don't hesitate to pick up everything and just leave...

This house is nothing to pull your hair out about,
it's just walls and insulation...

We're buried under stress that has consumed our house,
we've held it up for years and now it's crashing down.
But I'm not giving up I'm gonna dig it out,
just breathe.

Pushing through debris ,
the dust has settled now.
We're starting over new,
we'll build a stronger house.
And now I promise you,
we're gonna make it out,
just breathe.

If home is where the heart is,
then what's beating in my chest?
I won't be tearing down the wall paper,
until I'm proudly layed to rest.

This house is nothing to tear your heart out about,
it's just my home my foundation

We played the lottery everyday,
so the bank wouldn't take our home away.
Foreclose on our childhood memories,
but we were no match.
And like the warm summer grass,
underneath our feet we never seemed to last,
up against the cold New England winter.

Don't hesitate,
just pick up everything,
and just leave
