Everything I Build

The tide is high

I've never been so low

You got room to grow



You can never look up

You can't ever look down

You get kicked around



But I built it with sand

And I built it with rock

I built it with all of the

Things that I'm not

And I watch from the hill

As it burns to the ground

I can still see the smoke 

From my train out of town



Everything I build is breaking down

Everything I build is breaking down



I close my eyes

Scared of what I saw

Are you mad at all?

Been an open book

Been a slamming door

Apple of the trojan war



(chorus)



Everything I build is breaking down

Everything I build is breaking down



Drink a little bit

Dance a little bit

Take a chance 

I lose it all

I have no remorse no regrets

When I'm hanging from 

This seventeenth floor



The tide is high

Never been so low

You got room to grow



Everything I build is breaking down

Everything I build is breaking down
