THIS OLD HOUSE

If we let this old house crumble
It will be no more
We can't go back, pick up the pieces
Once we close that door
We are playing an irreversible game
We can make an effort now
Or have ourselves to blame

If we chose to do nothing
And let it rot to the ground
What are we leaving for the children
When we are not around
The trees are shedding leaves
And the birds are flying south
It's getting late in the day
We gotta figure this out

There is no time for excuses
Who cares who's wrong or right
Can't close our eyes
To what is coming
Go blind into the night
We did this to ourselves
And it's a crying shame
If we ignore the signs
We have ourselves to blame

We did this to ourselves
And it's a crying shame
We can't ignore the signs
This house is all we got
We can't start over again
We gotta change our ways
Or have ourselves to blame
