I built a house to harbor myself in
I lock you out I know that I'm selfish
My mother told me to follow my feet
But my legs feel weak can't help it
Said, I'm doing fine I'm getting no sleep
Hold my breath every time the phone screen lights up
Praying it's your name that I'm gonna see
But it's not, starting to regret the cold feet I'm stuck
Try to tell myself I'm good without you, but I'm really not
I been having trouble trying to tell you how I feel inside
Being by your side the only time I ever feel alive
Don't over exaggerate, you told me that a million times
Okay well, maybe not a million times
But if we kept it going we could reach the sky
I played it safe, think I need a roof
Thought it could be me and you
But I couldn't see it through, so
I built a house to harbor myself in
I lock you out I know that I'm selfish
My mother told me to follow my feet
But my legs feel weak can't
I used to be your rock
Lately you been skipping stones, you don't wanna talk
I rather take the sticks and stones, hurts more than I thought
I guess I got some brittle bones, so now when you knock
Sorry baby isn't home, no
And maybe this time it's different, yeah
Maybe the scale is tipping, yeah
House got a well I could wish in, yeah
So I make wishes
If I just wish then, I won't have to work for it
If I just get lucky I won't have to work for it
If I just get money I won't have to work for it
Right?
In the meantime
I built a house to harbor myself in
I lock you out I know that I'm selfish
My mother told me to follow my feet
But my legs feel weak can't help it
I built a house to harbor myself in
I lock you out I know that I'm selfish
My mother told me to follow my feet
But my legs feel weak can't help it
I lock you out I know that I'm selfish
My mother told me to follow my feet
But my legs feel weak can't help it
Said, I'm doing fine I'm getting no sleep
Hold my breath every time the phone screen lights up
Praying it's your name that I'm gonna see
But it's not, starting to regret the cold feet I'm stuck
Try to tell myself I'm good without you, but I'm really not
I been having trouble trying to tell you how I feel inside
Being by your side the only time I ever feel alive
Don't over exaggerate, you told me that a million times
Okay well, maybe not a million times
But if we kept it going we could reach the sky
I played it safe, think I need a roof
Thought it could be me and you
But I couldn't see it through, so
I built a house to harbor myself in

My mother told me to follow my feet

My mother told me to follow my feet
But my legs feel weak can't help it
