[Verse 1]
It's hard to believe that this is the place
Where we were so happy all our lives
Now so empty inside and feelin' no pain
Waitin' for a hammer and a big ball and chain

[Verse 2]
They can tear it all down and build something new
Then only I'll remember what was here
Tomorrow comes easy, just another day gone
How long will I have to keep returning?

[Verse 3]
Now I look back, think I've known all the time
I've been fightin' myself for so long
All the vows that we made, gone for old rags and lumber
Disappear on a cart down the road
