The House That Heaven Built Lyrics
The House That Heaven Built - Japandroids
When the soul of the city
Was laid to rest
And the nights forgotten
And left for dead
It happened at a house
Built of living light
Where everything evil
Disappears and dies
When they love you and they will (and they will!)
Tell them all they're loving my shadow
And if they try to slow you down (slow you down!)
Tell them all to go to hell
When they love you and they will (and they will!)
Tell them all they're loving my shadow
And if they try to slow you down (slow you down!)
Tell them all to go to hell
I settled in slowly
To this house which is a home
To blood and breath
Fair flesh and bone
Rush of our bodies
In the heat of the night
All day, the day after
Bled in the skies
When they love you and they will (and they will!)
Tell them all they're loving my shadow
And if they try to slow you down (slow you down!)
Tell them all to go to hell
When they love you and they will (and they will!)
Tell them all they're loving my shadow
And if they try to slow you down (slow you down!)
Tell them all to go to hell
It's a lifeless life
With no fixed address to give
But you're not mine to die for anymore
So I must live
Born of a bottle
From Edmonton
And now you know
And here I am
When they love you and they will (and they will!)
Tell them all they're loving my shadow
And if they try to slow you down (slow you down!)
Tell them all to go to hell
When they love you and they will (and they will!)
Tell them all they're loving my shadow
And if they try to slow you down (slow you down!)
Tell them all to go to hell
When they love me and they will (and they will!)
I'll tell them all they're loving your shadow
And if they try to slow me down (slow you down!)
I'll tell them all to go to hell
When they love me and they will (and they will!)
I'll tell them all they're loving your shadow
And if they try to slow me down (slow you down!)
I'll tell them all to go to hell
