Something's always broken
Seems we're worlds apart
Many words unspoken
Burning in our hearts

We've been here before
Beat this dead horse
In circles we go

'Cause we running on, running on
Running on empty
Yeah we're running on, running on
Running on empty

This straw house keeps falling
We built this on hallowed ground
Can't fix it, what's missing?

So easy to tear it down
And the wind just blows away
And the wind just blows away

Innocence is shattered
Tainted memories
Of a happy after
That will never be

We can't be apart
When we try again
We make deeper scars

'Cause we running on, running on
Running on empty
Yeah, we're running on, running on
Running on empty

This straw house keeps falling
We built this on hallowed ground
Can't fix it, what's missing?
So easy to tear it down

And the wind just blows away
And the wind just blows away
Looking at these walls we built
Wreckage of this love

Surrounds me
Next time build it brick by brick
I'm not letting go

This straw house keeps falling
We built this on hallowed ground
Can't fix it, what's missing?
So easy to tear it down

And the wind just blows away
And the wind just blows away
