Lyrics This House - Descendants of Cain, Wayne Hussey

This House

In this house that we’ve built
A cage by design
To keep all our things
The things that we hide
Now the attic is filled with lustrous prose
And the downstairs there are children
Breaking the windows
In this house that we built
Now you tamed all the horses
And you’ve made us official
Now nothing is wild and no one is special
Untie them all
(From this house we built)
In this house that we built
A gate by admission
Made of rafters of bone
And the walls are ambition
Where the young can grow lonely
To the sound of our voice
And the fields have become stony
And the deserts rejoice
Around this house that we built
Now you tamed all the horses
And you’ve made us official
Now nothing is wild and no one is special
Unite them all
(From this house we built)
Now you tamed all the horses
And you’ve made us official
Now nothing is wild and no one is special
