[Intro]
- Heavy distorted guitars, hard-hitting drum groove -
[Verse 1]
Old furniture CRACK - all rotted through
Time moved on, and everything just faded too
Can't live here now, there's no way out
The house smells of mold, in every corner all about
Peeling walls, paint's blown away
On that broken floor I danced and cried back in the day!
[Pre-Chorus]
Wind moans through the shattered windows
My old home now lies forgotten, hollow
Everything I loved, time tore apart
But in my mind, it's still alive in my heart!
[Chorus]
THE OLD HOUSE FELL DOWN! TURNED TO DUST!
Nothing left at all, NOTHING TRUST!
Only weeds grow wild all around
And memories of when I was happy in this ground!
OLD HOUSE! OLD HOUSE!
Doesn't exist no more, but it's stuck in my heart!
[Verse 2]
Roof collapsed, leaks echo through the hall
Floorboards creak with every step I recall
Dust in my lungs, wind through shattered panes
I scream for a door that never came again
[Pre-Chorus]
Wind moans through the shattered windows
My old home now lies forgotten, hollow
Everything I loved, time tore apart
But in my mind, it's still alive in my heart!
[Chorus]
THE OLD HOUSE FELL DOWN! TURNED TO DUST!
Nothing left at all, NOTHING TRUST!
Only weeds grow wild all around
And memories of when I was happy in this ground!
OLD HOUSE! OLD HOUSE!
Doesn't exist no more, but it's stuck in my heart!
[Bridge]
Creaking stairs, a ghost of laughter lingers
Shadows cling where the light once fingered
If I close my eyes, I’m standing at the door
But I’m not waiting anymore for more
[Chorus]
THE OLD HOUSE FELL DOWN! TURNED TO DUST!
Nothing left at all, NOTHING TRUST!
Only weeds grow wild all around
And memories of when I was happy in this ground!
OLD HOUSE! OLD HOUSE!
Doesn't exist no more, but it's stuck in my heart!
[Outro]
(Your echo remains in the walls I carry inside)
