Your name is scratched out and I'm not holding up
You built this house to tear it down
I'm fed some healthy doses of divinity
So they'll last me through the final years
I'd force you to walk those hundred miles of rock
The worst of men that vowed and vowed to keep them here
Your name is scratched out and I'm not holding up
This changes everything
You built this house to tear it down
So now you're not the king, this changes everything
I'm not going to let you get away with not ever being there for me
He broke at the hit of my hammer like the fragile stone that he is
And I'll standby 'til I flat-line to hear you confess
There is so much more to this
Your name is scratched out and I'm not holding up
This changes everything
You built this house to tear it down
So now you're not the king
If I could live one more time, I'd let you know that
The father runs away, mother saves the day
Am I allowed to breathe? Mother, say I may
Father runs, father runs so fast
Can I get my life to go farther?
Father runs so fast
Your name is scratched out and I'm not holding up
You built this house to tear it down
So now you're not the king
And I'll standby 'til I flat-line to hear you confess
You're giving up the crown
It's too heavy for you, there's nothing left to prove
