I calculated all that was said
With pencils and paper
Up to my head
Til I'm covered in lead
Did i really think it would work like I planned?
Like I planned
It's all so bad
We built this house
On paper and words
The thought of it breaking sounded absurd
So here's to the dreams
We watch shatter before our eyes
And here's to perfection
Laced with compromise
We built this house
On paper and words
The thought of it breaking sounded absurd
Unheard of
Take a breath and close your eyes
Walk by faith into the night
Take a breath and close your eyes
Walk by faith into the night
