I was baptized in dirty water, nobody would love me like you did I'm just gonna keep on running, don't look back, don't let them get inside your head, yeah This is our life, this is our time We keep it simple if we can They'll build a fire to burn us in, I'll say "Do you know who I am"?
You built this house, now let's walk on the ceiling...
Baby please, can we take it down just a little more You're not some little girl, we're both older wiser whores So when we feel it burn, or can taste it in the air We'll know were somewhere, but they won't want us there
What if nobody is hearing your prayers You waste time that you don't have to spare But if we're alone is it better to not know? You built this house...
We're going bottle after bottle again because this night didn't go as planned With every second that I waste the result could be a lifetime of mistakes I know there's nothing wrong with being in love But what if a littles not enough when has a little been enough before? Now everything that you said will be just a long night hopelessly knowing
Why am I alone in this room, If it's not thanks to me then it is thanks to you Have you ever thought that I don't wanna go What if nobody is hearing your prayers You waste time that you don't have to spare But if we're alone I don't wanna know
If all we are is chemicals, is that why we live like machines? I was baptized in dirty water, nobody would love me like she did But I'm sick and tired of running, I looked back, I let them get inside my head You built this house...
