framework - krystal evette lyrics
(verse one)
i was sitting in the living room
when water trickled in
leaking from the ceiling
plaster and patience wore thin
then the windows started cracking
like the shattered glass was stained
the ceiling tiles peeling
and they let in all the rain
the shower started running
but i never turned it on
they said it’s all in your head
i wish i could prove them wrong
now i think this house was haunted
should have known it all along
how can i build upon it
if the walls were never strong?
(chorus 1)
guess i need to tear it down
if i built it all from scratch
i just tried to turn a light on
but instead, i lit a match
they said redo the framework
if i want this house to stand
so i’m back holding the shovel
while blisters form on my hand
(verse two)
i might have all the bricks
but i can’t find the cement
i may now hold the hammer
but can’t chisel out the dents
sometimes i sit and wonder
what i’m working on at all
why even mix the plaster
with no pictures for the walls?
the amount of work i have to do
maybe i’ll just be done
maybe this house is past repair
occupancy at one
if hope is the electric
than all wires have been cut
i’m d*mned to this construction zone
to dig a deeper rut
(chorus 2)
knew i had to tear it down
but it’s hard to build from scratch
i’d rather leave the box closed
there’s just too much to rehash
they say redo the framework
if i want this house to stand
but i’d rather burn it down
don’t need new bones, i need new land
(break)
they say redo the framework
but don’t think i have the will
i destroyed many bridges
so i know i have the sk!ll
but tearing down and building up
the latter’s just too hard
i’d have to clear the skeletons
they’ve buried in my yard
(bridge)
maybe it’s time to hang my hat up
leave all the remains
maybe it’s time to admit
that it’s too late for my brain
admit i failed your classes
and fell down from d to z
you have a lot of casualties
but somehow, i still breathe
i tried to clean your dungeon
but instead, you bombed my palace
i tried to fix the flooring
but my hands are covered calloused
i’m chewing through the metal
so i can escape the cage
i’ve never let me feel it
but now i’m one with my rage
(break)
i’ve held onto it far too long
i’m shedding the self blame
instead of pouring water on them
i now fuel the flames
no prisoner to my regret
refuse to feel the guilt
i’ve now become the arsonist
since you’ve burned what i’ve built
(outro)
i’m climbing up but i fall down
got ripped off of the ladder
i’m trying to forget it
like you never even mattered
i’m climbing up but i fall down
got ripped off of the ladder
i tried hard not to break
but now i just let it shatter
(outro 2)
climbing up but falling down
can’t grip onto the ladder
i’m trying to forget it
like you never even mattered
climbing up but falling down
i let go of the ladder
make more wounds or patch those you’ve made
you never took the latter
you never took the latter
