To Build a Home
The Cinematic Orchestra Lyrics


There is a house built out of stone
Wooden floors, walls and window sills
Tables and chairs worn by all of the dust
This is a place where I don't feel alone
This is a place where I feel at home

'Cause, I built a home
For you
For me

Until it disappeared
From me
From you

And now, it's time to leave and turn to dust

Out in the garden where we planted the seeds
There is a tree as old as me
Branches were sewn by the color of green
Ground had arose and passed it's knees

By the cracks of the skin I climbed to the top
I climbed the tree to see the world
When the gusts came around to blow me down
I held on as tightly as you held onto me
I held on as tightly as you held onto me

And, I built a home
For you
For me

Until it disappeared
From me
From you

And now, it's time
To leave and turn
To dust

Here’s the lyrics if u want them.

There is a house built out of stone
Wooden floors, walls and window sills
Tables and chairs worn by all of the dust
This is a place where I don't feel alone
This is a place where I feel at home
'Cause, I built a home
For you
For me
Until it disappeared
From me
From you
And now, it's time to leave and turn to dust
Out in the garden where we planted the seeds
There is a tree as old as me
Branches were sewn by the color of green
Ground had arose and passed it's knees
By the cracks of the skin I climbed to the top
I climbed the tree to see the world
When the gusts came around to blow me down
I held on as tightly as you held onto me
I held on as tightly as you held onto me
And, I built a home
For you
For me
Until it disappeared
From me
From you
And now, it's time
To leave and turn
To dust

Who else misses those times when you were just a kid and didn’t have anxiety or had to worry about anything in life...

To see paradise, one has to look through the eyes of a child, a wise man once said. I hope and pray your worries have faded and joy returns, I hope you have loved ones to share your burden. I wish you the strength, self-love, and wisdom to come to full bloom and recognize that worry is just the shadow of past experience, worries are usually false and add nothing to solve a problem. I wish you the clarity to remember your passions, the power to let go of people that bring drama in your life and shake off old ballast to choose the path that leads to your happiness. Big hug!

I've always had anxiety.. My worst nightmares I have finally come to find out were actually best explained as panic attacks that began at 5-6 years old.

@SEA pressure, mental load, anxiety, fear of facing reality.
That is what I feel. Before 2020 i never thought strong about those things bc i was a child if I can say (recklessness, happiness?). But it's not too bad I still have life ahead of me🙏🤍

I never had that feeling what does it feel like.

I listened to this song while my husband was dying in the hospital because of a genetic disorder. He was too young, only 39, and didn't want to leave me and our kids behind. The lyric that makes me think of him the most is when it says "held on as tightly as you held onto me." He was a good man and he wasn't bitter to be in his situation. He was so kind to everyone in the hospital that was trying to help him. But he really didn't want to leave, and he clung to us as long as he could manage. I miss you, Chief. I can't wait to see you again someday.

God bless you
