Video The Big House de Lauren Wood 2025 Lyrics Lyrics

Lauren Wood - The Big House Lyrics

Hear the guns and the distant thunder,

I can't go out there.

So detached from the ache and the hunger,

afraid to care.



Don't know it when the sun goes down.

I read it that the world spins 'round...



Here in The Big House

We're living in "Panavision",

We got a city we call Avalon.

Here in The Big House,

We got a subdivision

where it is burning like the Amazon.



Fifty-two little states in a jumble,

nowhere to run.

Got to fight to survive in the jungle,

My head is numb.



We were looking for a better life,

Still hoping it will turn out right...



Here in The Big House

We're living in "Panavision",

We got a city we call Avalon.

Here in The Big House,

We got a subdivision

where it is burning like the Amazon.
