Patrick Watson – House on Fire Lyrics

Alternative

I'll be wrong and you be right
I don't mind because it's alright
I keep tryna see your side
Even though I just wanna hide

And we are words, we are stones
This world stands still, while we are thrown
Where did all our love go?
How'd your eyes get 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 tryna 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 you hear their voices call?
(Can you hear, can you hear their 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
I 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
