Build AHouse Lyrics

By Megan Tibbits

Lyrics

I'm filling

Guess I thought it would be easier

To cover up holes by hanging pretty things on the wall


I had to do a little bit of undoing to do it right

I had to do a little bit of unlearning to see the light


I want to build a house

That′s sturdy and unshaken

But first I gotta tear down

What I thought that I could make it

'Cause the walls could no longer hold

The weight of all you want to put inside

So I gotta tear it down

'Cause I want to build a house


I′m learning

That I thought I knew the best way

You probably tried to tell me gently

But still I demanded I was right


I notice

That I know less than I did before

But you think that is beautiful

And you′ve been waiting for that


I had to do a little bit of undoing to do it right

I had to do a little bit of unlearning to see the light


I want to build a house that's sturdy and unshaken

But first I gotta tear down what I have tried to make it

′Cause the walls could no longer hold

The weight of all you want to put inside

So I gotta tear it down

'Cause I want to build a house


A place where you want to live

A place where you want to stay

A place where I stop taking up all the space and

A place where you can move

A place you can redecorate

A place where I′ve addressed the things that need to change and

A place that you can use

A place where you will say

Well done now

You've built me a house


I want to build a house

That′s sturdy and undaunted

But first I gotta tear down what I thought that I had wanted

'Cause the walls could no longer hold

The weight of all you want to put inside

So I gotta tear it down
