It's crowded in the kitchen
Everyone's trying to speak
Everyone's got an opinion
Everyone has a belief
There's an elephant in every room
No one's taking out the trash
There's a million miles that come between
The front door and the back
If the world was a house
And it was on fire
Would we just put it out
Or let it burn higher?
We wouldn't be strangers
We wouldn't be enemies
We'd run into danger
I'd save you, you'd save me
If the world was a house
Secrets in the basement
Closets full of rage
This house is leaning right and left
It's never stood up straight
On the porch they're praying to Jesus
Upstairs they read the stars
Lookin' for a hammer
Lookin' for a nail
To keep from falling apart
If the world was a house
And it was on fire
Would we just put it out
Or let it burn higher?
We wouldn't be strangers
We wouldn't be enemies
We'd run into danger
I'd save you, you'd save me
If the world was a house
If the world was a house
We wouldn't be strangers
We wouldn't be enemies
We'd run into danger
I'd save you
You'd save me
If the world was house
Everyone's trying to speak
Everyone's got an opinion
Everyone has a belief
There's an elephant in every room
No one's taking out the trash
There's a million miles that come between
The front door and the back
If the world was a house
And it was on fire
Would we just put it out
Or let it burn higher?
We wouldn't be strangers
We wouldn't be enemies
We'd run into danger
I'd save you, you'd save me
If the world was a house
Secrets in the basement
Closets full of rage
This house is leaning right and left
It's never stood up straight
On the porch they're praying to Jesus
Upstairs they read the stars
Lookin' for a hammer
Lookin' for a nail
To keep from falling apart
If the world was a house
And it was on fire
Would we just put it out
Or let it burn higher?
We wouldn't be strangers
We wouldn't be enemies
We'd run into danger
I'd save you, you'd save me
If the world was a house
If the world was a house
We wouldn't be strangers
We wouldn't be enemies
We'd run into danger
I'd save you
You'd save me
If the world was house

This just choked me, for real, for a while, and the artists deserve a big ass 9 for the beauty they spread.
Nice song also ;)
Really lovely. I thought, Hey, sounds like Wye Oak... Another nice new discovery on RP!
Another band by Phoebe Bridgers? Oups, hard to be fully original these days.
Beautiful sentiment
got to love metaphoric songs
Really pretty. I get almost Simon and Garfunkel vibes but with like Mazzy Star mixed in and through it all.
Definitely a nice addition - a little Enya, a little Halstead, Obel and more.
Second 😉
Nice song
Nice song

On the other hand, The Secret Sisters seem to be unfamiliar with for-profit fire brigades, like the one owned by Crassus.
