  • Alkaline Trio Burned Is The House Lyrics

           

    It's like we both have just arrived here
    Like we've just stepped off a plane in a new town
    and the sun was out.
    I was talking, you would point your ear at me
    like I was making some sweet sound
    you said, "make it loud"

    But we can never come back here again
    we can only hope...
    to forget.

    Walked through a cemetery archway
    into a wood that hung so happily alone
    but the words were all wrong.
    You traded all my ill affections
    for directions to a party across town.
    You bring the house down.

    But we can never go back there again
    we can only hope.

    So...

    Burned is the house.
    Gone is the street.
    Here is the same disappointing retreat.
    And I need it like hell if I'd lie to myself
    to think I could live that life over again.
    Where the cuts were like guilt
    and the taste for your eyes
    I say, "we're up when I couldn't just say goodnight"
    If you cry me a river you can baptize me in
    I say, "I guess that's it, now I've fucking seen everything"

    Woah's

    You were the first real choice I would make,
    but we all make mistakes, so...

    Jumped overboard because the water's always greener
    when the sun shines on the sea
    Would you drown for me?
    It's just as deep as you can make it
    you tread water when you could stand on your knees
    but don't pray to me.
    Cause when the lamp ray's taken all it can
    it will keep you dead.

    But but,

    Burned is the house.
    Gone is the street.
    Here is the same disappointing retreat.
    And I need it like hell if I'd lie to myself
    to think I could live that life over again.
    Where the cuts were like guilt
    and the taste for your eyes
    I say, "we're up when I couldn't just say goodnight"
    If you cry me a river you can baptize me in
    I say, "I guess that's it, yeah, I've fucking seen everything now"

    Woah's

    You were the first real choice I would make,
    You were the only one that I would take
    Now you'll take til I go.

    You were the first real choice I would make,
    but we all make mistakes,
    so...
