[Verse 1]
I built this house out of cedar wood
And I laid the beams by hand
One for every false heart I had known
One for the true heart I planned
Laid the windows tight against the wind
So in the winter we'd be warm
I built a bedroom out of solid oak
Safety from the storm
[Chorus]
This house is burning
This home is on fire
When you whisper to the walls
It's another's name you call
Even your tongue's become a liar
This house is on fire
[Verse 2]
Stole the heart of a cherry wood
And I built a door to last
It was thick enough to keep all thieves away
When the long nights came to pass
Then one day there was a hint of spring
And there were roses in the air
We opened wide enough to let you in
I was glad to share
I built this house out of cedar wood
And I laid the beams by hand
One for every false heart I had known
One for the true heart I planned
Laid the windows tight against the wind
So in the winter we'd be warm
I built a bedroom out of solid oak
Safety from the storm
[Chorus]
This house is burning
This home is on fire
When you whisper to the walls
It's another's name you call
Even your tongue's become a liar

And I built a door to last
It was thick enough to keep all thieves away
When the long nights came to pass
Then one day there was a hint of spring
And there were roses in the air
We opened wide enough to let you in
I was glad to share
