I feel like a house; Not a home My walls so forbiddingly high Overgrown ivy entombing my heart My meaning shrouded in sorrow As my last dreams fade away, along with the warmth within me I feel like a house; Not a home So why not break down these walls; Burn down all my antique memories? Till I'm left with my bare scaffold I'll be empty, a mere soulless spirit;                                    - but aren't I already

I feel like a house; Not a home My walls so forbiddingly high Overgrown ivy entombing my heart My meaning shrouded in sorrow As my last dreams fade away, along with the warmth within me I feel like a house; Not a home So why not break down these walls; Burn down all my antique memories? Till I'm left with my bare scaffold I'll be empty, a mere soulless spirit;                                    - but aren't I already
