The House Where I Was Raised

My parents bought a rundown place A house out in the hills For twenty years, that's where our family stayed They made that house into a home The best that they could build The house where I was raised Then life came on, as life will do For my two sisters and me Our cracked and crooked foundations were laid As time went by I saw that I Was growing up to be A little like the house where I was raised At night-time I can close my eyes See every detail, every crack Of the rooms where all my hopes and fears were made When morning comes, the memory fades I'm never going back To the house where I was raised We lost that house and cleaned it out When my dad got laid off Twenty years packed up and cleared in days I burned the last of what was left And choked on the dust of The house where I first got laid At night-time I can close my eyes See every detail, every crack Of the rooms where all my hopes and fears were made When morning comes, the memory fades I'm never going back To the house where I was raised Looking back, I choose to cherish The hope over what happened To the family that house held as it frayed The new folks there have done it up And it'll never be the same The house where I was raised
