And The House Fell Down Lyrics

And The House Fell Down lyrics

The sun is up and the shades are all pulled down

I'm more paranoid with
every little sound

Like the leaf blower blowing the leaves around

And a siren wailing on the other side of town



Oh the TVs on and
the colors really hurt my head

If I could think straight I'd wish I was
dead

Or curled up naked in my lover's bed

Instead I'm hanging over
Hell suspended by a single thread



[chorus:]

And I don't
recall who said it at this time

That your enemies grow strong on what you
leave behind

I built it up and the wolf he came around

He huffed and
puffed and the house fell down



With a rolled up note I'm hovering
on that line

Three days on a diet of cocaine and wine

And a little
weed just to level me sometime

I put the clock in the drawer 'cause I've
cancelled out the time



[repeat chorus]



So don't knock
on my door, don't try to call

I'm holed up in this room talking to the
wall

When you're high as this you think you know it all

When you're
this deep in there's no place else to fall



[repeat chorus]



And still that saying gets inside my mind

That your enemies grow
strong on what you leave behind

I built it up and the wolf he came
around

He huffed and puffed and the house fell down
