Composed by：Sarah Aarons/Nathaniel Motte

Ohh ohhh

One two three and I'm staring at the rubble

Settled dust at the footsteps of our castle

Set in stone the words that went unspoken yeah

Put my hand on my chest the chain on my neck

Is broken

These holy walls are laying at our feet

I guess they ought to fall eventually

Now shatter the glasses we stay with our lips

Set off the matches to burn every brick

Please oh please I know that sticks and stones

Can't build a broken home

Ohhh ohh

The clock it ticks and I'm cleaning up the remains

Gritted teeth as I'm picking up the photo frames

Candles burning and it's such a shame

Shame

Just minutes ago I was clear in my though

Now everything's gone up in flames

These holy walls are laying at our feet ooh no no

I guess they ought to fall eventually

Now shatter the glasses we stay with our lips

Set off the matches to burn every brick

Please oh please I know that sticks and stones

Can't build a broken home

Ohhh ohh

Ohhh ohh yeah yeah yeah

Brick by brick it crumbles apart

A smokey cloud hands over my heart

Crashing down this big brown house

Built on broken ground

Ohhh

These holy walls are laying at our feet ooh-ooh-ooh

I guess they ought to fall eventually yeah yeah

Now shatter the glasses we stay with our lips

Set off the matches to burn every brick

Please oh please I know that sticks and stones

Can't build a broken home
