The House We Live In - Arlissa

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

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 sign or wrong

Maybe it’s time we all listen

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

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 sign or wrong

Maybe it’s time we all answer the wake-up call

And listen

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
