House On Fire
Sara Phillips Lyrics

No air in my lungs
I was struggling to breathe due to the thick smoke from the fire.

Just smoke in my eyes
The smoke was making it difficult for me to see properly.

I know I should have run
It was the sensible thing to do, but I couldn't bring myself to leave.

But I wanted to fight
I didn't want to give up on our home without a fight.

And you watched as we lost it all
You didn't do anything to stop our home from being destroyed.

But I thought maybe we were something worth saving
Despite everything, I still had hope that we could salvage our relationship.

When the house that was our home caught fire
Our relationship was in trouble and things were falling apart.

How come I was the only one running back inside?
I was willing to do everything I could to save what was left of our relationship, but you weren't.

And you just watched as I was burning alive
You stood by and did nothing while I suffered and struggled to cope.

I was screaming your name
I was desperate for your help and support, but you ignored me.

You let me bleed all alone
I was left to deal with the pain and heartache all on my own.

I was going down in flames
My life was falling apart and I was struggling to keep it together.

You stood cold as stone
You were emotionless and distant throughout our difficulties.

Still I thought maybe we were something worth saving
Despite feeling like you didn't care, I still had hope for our relationship.

Oh and after all this time
Even though some time has passed since our relationship fell apart.

There's still smoke in my eyes
The memories of our struggles and difficulties still linger in my mind.

But I'm breathing alright
I'm doing okay and moving on with my life.

At least I can say I tried
Despite everything, I can say that I did my best to save our relationship.
