Verse 1
I laid my bricks in a hurry, never checked the ground
Chasing shadows in the dark that I couldn’t talk about
Every little warning, I just learned to ignore
Now the cracks are crawling up the walls I can’t restore
Pre-Chorus I knew better, I just didn’t care Built it tall just to breathe in that air
I trade truth for a taste I can’t defend
Cheap relief that just circles back again
Chorus I’m the fool who built his house on the sand Watched it rise just to slip through my hands When the wind howls, when the tide rolls in I go down with every promise I pretend Yeah, I knew - but I did what I did Now I’m buried in the mess I’m living in
Verse 2 Kept on feeding every hunger that just multiplies Paint it over pretty just to hide the compromise Every day I swore that I’d start over clean Every night found me emptier between
Pre-Chorus I knew better, I just didn’t care Built it tall just to breathe that air
I trade truth for a taste I can’t defend
Cheap relief that just circles back again
Chorus I’m the fool who built his house on the sand Watched it rise just to slip through my hands When the wind howls, when the tide rolls in I go down with every promise I pretend Yeah, I knew - but I did what I did Now I’m buried in the mess I’m living in
Bridge Tear it down, let it all collapse Every shortcut, every relapse If I’m gonna drown in what I’ve made I’ll learn the depth of every wave
There’s a ghost in every room I hide
Looks like me but hollowed out inside
Every glance turns into something more
Every “enough” just leaves me wanting more
Final Chorus I’m the fool who built his house on the sand But I’m still here with these shaking hands When the wind howls, when the tide rolls in Maybe I won’t run back there again
I’m the fool who built his house on the sand Watched it rise just to slip through my hands When the wind howls, when the tide rolls in I’ll run to the rock, and build there instead
Pre-Chorus I knew better, I just didn’t care Built it tall just to breathe in that air
I trade truth for a taste I can’t defend
Cheap relief that just circles back again
Chorus I’m the fool who built his house on the sand Watched it rise just to slip through my hands When the wind howls, when the tide rolls in I go down with every promise I pretend Yeah, I knew - but I did what I did Now I’m buried in the mess I’m living in
