Wild Sweet Orange - House Of Regret lyrics

rate me

I have a friend and when he sings, i cry

all the memories inside try to rebirth and give me life

but i can't talk about old times tonight

'cause round here blue light stays up all the time

it's seven o'clock

i already feel late

all the pain from my stress are beating my chest

about decisions i've had to make

well i breathe in light

and i breathe out light

run my hands through my hair, see my breath in the air

oh, i'm so tired of running

when all your bad boys have gone sour

and you're shivering, cold and alone in a shower

oh baby that soap won't make you clean

screaming at jesus just to let you bleed

it's seven-thirty

i can smell the candles burning

i could go to sleep now

i'll just wait till morning

when the melodies come and sing me stories

all the birds that can talk

no, they're never boring

there's nothing like hearing that girl cry on the receiver

and your stomach hurts so bad 'cause you think you need her

so you down that cough syrup

you love feeling so screwed up

and you crawl up those steps and read yourself to sleep

yeah, you crawl up those steps and sing yourself to peace

it's eight o'clock

she didn't eat today

yeah, hurting herself's never felt this great

well you see that green hill, friend

that's where i'm gonna be

watching glory coming in the form of morning

i was found on that dark hillside

with a certain painting by my side

screaming: knock down the house of regret

knock it down, pave it over

till you feel younger and younger

knock it down, pave it over

till you feel like you can't again

knock it down, pave it over

till your heart's warmer and warmer

knock it down, pave it over

till you wake up born again
