House With No Foundation

Verse 1

Two AM and the sink is full of excuses

I trace the cracks in the plaster like a map I never learned

You sleep with your back to the doorway

And I count every breath to make sure it's still mine

Pre-Chorus

There's a version of me that could walk out clean

But he died somewhere between the bottle and the routine

Chorus

I'm a house with no foundation

A prayer with no religion

I hold you so close that I'm choking you out

And I hate that I love how it feels to be broken

Verse 2

The mirror's a liar with my father's jaw

I wear his silence like a hand-me-down scar

You ask me what I'm thinking and the words just go dark

So I hand you the weight of a man I can't be

Pre-Chorus

There's a version of me that could tell the truth

But he's buried in the basement of my youth

Chorus

I'm a house with no foundation

A prayer with no religion

I hold you so close that I'm choking you out

And I hate that I love how it feels to be broken

Bridge

I press my fist to the wall till the knuckles go white

Just to feel something other than the static at night

You deserve a man who can look you in the eye

I deserve the floor to open up and take me alive

Chorus

I'm a house with no foundation

A prayer with no religion

I hold you so close that I'm choking you out

And I hate that I love how it feels to be broken

Outro

How it feels to be broken

How it feels

How it feels
