I Built A House Lyrics by Fred Thomas

Sink Like A Symphony

2006

I built a house out of believing and burnt it down
Serious shouts circled the ceiling, then billowed out
Flames in my mouth, named after feelings
Crackling and proud, burning and beaming
I built a house, then I decided to leave
Ahhh....
I built a town, a park, a cathedral, left no structure out
Wondered about how one room feels empty
And one feels loud, with the wonder of how
We had all lived in closets, in backyard lightning
Then lived alone with many disguises
Nobody sees you and me as the same person twice
