[Verse 1]
I found a light between the cracks
I found a voice that shakes and still fight back
No weapon drawn can speak my peace
So now I’m calling off this war inside of me
[Chorus]
The words that we speak out loud become the house we live in
The fire inside has the power to build or burn bridges
There is no right side of wrong
Maybe it’s time we all listen
[Verse 2]
How many poplar trees have made a sound
When the branches bend and no-one’s around
I’m not the only wave that shapes the shore
Riding the shoulders of all those who came before
[Chorus]
The words that we speak out loud become the house we live in
The fire inside has the power to build or burn bridges
There is no right side of wrong
Maybe it’s time we all answer the wake-up call
And listen
[Outro]
The love and the hate we give becomes the house we live in
The love and the hate we give becomes the house we live in
The love and the hate we give becomes the house we live in
Answer the wake-up call
And listen
