This House
Lyrics of This House by Henry Morris
Intro
The last of the bombs went off
Los Angeles is nothing but some rubble and dust and
The oceans drying up
The fire from the dying buildings reflects on her body
Verse
I overheard
The money′s tight and your lover's bored
I never learned
The love may be dead but the baby′s born
Pre-chorus
Always leaving
I hate being left
This home's a cage with a chain to the bed
You cut me out before I got the chance
To cut you first
Now I need you again
Hook
Oh baby
Look what you've started
The city is burning
Don′t they know
The world is ending
The second you left me
Why have the waves kept on crashing?
I can′t understand
How could you do this to me?
Verse
I'm losing my hold
This house feels emptier with you home
I don′t wanna know
I bet the feeling is mutual
Pre-chorus
Always leaving
I hate being left
This home's a cage with a chain to the bed
You cut me out before I got the chance
To cut you first
Now I need you again
Hook
Oh baby
Look what you′ve started
The city is burning
Don't they know
The world is ending
The second you left me
Why have the waves kept on crashing?
I can′t understand
How could you do this to me?
Bridge
Oh and I'm yet to figure out
Why you put me down
Oh and you're burning down this house
Just to piss me off
Why even stay?
Your mind ain′t changin′
Why should I stay?
You're mind ain′t changing
Hook
Oh baby
Look what you've started
The city is burning
Don′t they know
The world is ending
The second you left me
Why have the waves kept on crashing?
I can't understand
How could you do this to me?
