We used to build things Lyrics by Office Culture

Enough

2024

We used to build things here
Things that everybody needs
We used to build them soup to nuts
We used to write up the deeds
We used to build things here
Whatever was in our heads
We took all the people’s fears
Flattened em out
Put em to bed
I thought that I could be
One of the foremen
One of the big shots too
Siring a brave new world
One that’d be bettеr for you
Well sir, does it hurt herе? There?
Can you sit up or stand?
We used to help people like us
When we needed a hand
Cause see I know you
Baby, I know you
I know you like a joke
That I’m telling straight to your heart
Ah, can you hear it?
I’m talking straight to your heart
I’m talking straight to your heart
I’m talking straight to you
Well, you’ll never call
So I’m talking straight to your heart
I’m talking straight to your heart
I’m talking straight to you
We used to squeeze our way
Out of almost anything
Ooh baby is it crucial?
Am I still being useful?
Is the tiger worth taming?
I’m doing a bit, I’m doing a joke
I’m hoping that you feel seen
We used build things here
If you know what I mean
I know I’m yours, I took my time to feel it
You know I’m yours, I left no time for healing
Bleed out
Pull up baby, let your fears spill out
What can we build here now?
We used to cape for things we didn’t really believe in
We used to do bad things where anyone passing by could see them
I had to build things to have some sense of place
You had to build things to wipe the smile off my face
And sometimes the walls closed in
Sometimes our texts were rude
Sometimes you felt nothing for me baby
And sometimes I knew it
Sometimes my heart will hurt so much
That I’ll waste anyone’s night
Sometimes my head fills with your sadness
I can’t pull back from the fight
Sometimes I wish it was as simple
As just saying it’s through
I used to build things here
But only for you
Ah, can you hear me?
I’m talking straight to your heart
I’m talking straight to your heart
I’m talking straight to you
I know you’re tired
But I’m talking straight to your heart
I’m talking straight to your heart
I’m talking straight to you
Hi ho, hi ho silver
Aw, take it for a walk
