Lyrics
[Verse 1]
(We built this up in one day, to fall downward and rust)
(We built this house with our hands, and our time and our blood)
(We built this up in one day, to fall downward and rust)
[Verse 2]
Heard don't move unless you know someone you can move
I bruise just like anyone would bruise
And I know we've got a long way to go
I know I've got so far
[Verse 3]
We built this house with our hands, and our time and our blood
You build this up in one day, to fall downward and rust
You built this house with your hands, and your time and your blood
We built this up in one day, to fall downward and rust
[Verse 4]
I'm gone, you tried to emphasize and side with both your ghosts
In time, I swore I'd take the straight and narrow path but still won't
And I hold his ear, I'm only tryin' to do my job tonight
Kiss him on top of his lips and crucify the fire
[Verse 5]
We built this house with our hands, and our time and our blood
You build this up in one day, to fall downward and rust
You built this house with your hands, and your time and your blood
We built this up in one day, to fall downward and
[Verse 6]
Never really feel the same
No, it's never gonna be the same
No, it's never gonna be the same
No, it's never gonna be the same
[Verse 7]
(We built this house with our hands, and our time and our blood)
(We built this up in one day, to fall downward and rust)
We built this house with our hands, and our time and our blood
You build this up in one day, to fall downward and rust
[Verse 8]
Trust me the same way
With your time and your blood
Holy or inane
To fall downward and
[Verse 9]
Never really feel the same
No, it's never gonna be the same
No, it's never gonna be the same
Never gonna be the same
[Verse 10]
(Never really feel the same)
(Never gonna be the same)
(Never gonna be the same)
(Never gonna be the same)
