Burning House

Burning House EP, 2017

Written by Graci Phillips

Burning wood, the smell of smoke, theses flames are getting higher

And this house is burning down

Locked into, by words we say, rooms that we cannot escape

And it’s all coming down around us

And I don’t see a way that we can leave

Without getting burned eventually

Probably think this is all because of me

But she’s the one who started the fire

Take me, save me, pull me from this burning house

Humility’s the only thing to save us now

Take me, save me, pull me from this burning house

Humility’s the only thing to save us now

Choking on my own excuse, slowly tightening the noose

Cause, saying sorry would be too hard

I justify my selfish needs and disregard the feelings of

Anyone but me

But I know I’m not the only one to blame

You played your part like you were born for the stage

I guess they’re right, Oh they’re right when they say

That it takes two to tangle 

Take me, save me, pull me from this burning house

Humility’s the only thing to save us now

Take me, save me, pull me from this burning house

Humility’s the only thing to save us now
