The House You Built

[Verse 1] There are six things He can’t stand — Seven that light the flame. Proud eyes that look down low — A tongue that twists the name. Hands that wound the guiltless — A heart that loves the lie. Feet that rush to ruin — And words that split the sky. [Verse 2] You said “It doesn’t hurt them,” — But now they’ve all moved on. You whispered blame into the dark — Now all your friends are gone. You mocked the ones who warned you — You laughed and closed the door. But when you burn down every bridge — There’s no one left no more. [Chorus] You built the walls and called it peace — But now you’re locked inside. The silence echoes louder still — Than all the words you hide. Don’t blame the ones who walked away — When you refused to yield. You chose the fire, the ash, the pain — And this is what you sealed. [Bridge] You won’t always be strong enough — To make it on your own. And when you find the crowd is gone — You’ll call, but no one’s home. The house you built to prove them wrong — Now crumbles from the truth. And all that’s left is bitter tears — And echoes of your youth. [Chorus – Final] You built the walls and called it peace — But now you’re locked inside. The silence echoes louder still — Than all the words you hide. Don’t blame the world for turning cold — When love was what you killed. The only home that you have left — Is the house you chose to build.
