Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Poured my soul out on the kitchen tile
Checked my watch every heavy mile
She says she needs space and I am shrinking
Trying to understand exactly what she is thinking
[Pre-Chorus]
Everything I have I placed within her hands
I gave the kingdom just to satisfy her plans
[Chorus]
A man will climb the highest wall
Just to be the one who breaks your fall
But an angry woman leaves a path of red
Not even realizing the things she said
She will pull the foundation from the floor
Then wonder why I can't stand anymore
She tears it down
Piece by piece she tears it down
[Verse 2]
Worked the late shift to buy the ring
I would have given her every single thing
Her silence is a blade that cuts so deep
The secrets that she chooses to keep
[Pre-Chorus]
I changed the way I walk and how I speak
I am the anchor but I am getting weak
[Chorus]
A man will climb the highest wall
Just to be the one who breaks your fall
But an angry woman leaves a path of red
Not even realizing the things she said
She will pull the foundation from the floor
Then wonder why I can't stand anymore
She tears it down
Piece by piece she tears it down
[Bridge]
Maybe she thinks I am made of stone
Untouched by the fire
Unshaken alone
But the ghost in her eyes
Kills every truth and feeds the lies
[Chorus]
A man will climb the highest wall
Just to be the one who breaks your fall
But an angry woman leaves a path of red
Not even realizing the things she said
She will pull the foundation from the floor
Then wonder why I can't stand anymore
She tears it down
Piece by piece she tears it down
