House Of Pain

Lock all the doors, shut all the windows tight

'Cause I'm bringing down the house of pain

Don't look back, everything's gonna be all right

'Cause I'm bringing down the house of pain

I didn't know that I didn't have a good time

'Til I stepped outside in the morning light

I may never be the same, but that's all right

'Cause I'm bringing down the house of pain

Bring on the wrecking ball, I'll let it swing

And do its thing to this house of pain

I got some blue tip matches and a song to sing

'Cause I'm bringing down the house of pain, yeah

I'm gonna give myself a little absolution

I'll pick and choose my sleepless nights

I may never be the same, but that's all right

'Cause I'm bringing down the house of pain

You see, critics' words previously residing in my head

Have found their way inside this house

And I've locked them there instead

Successfully forgetting all the names and the deeds they've done

I set the charge to blow this place from here to kingdom come

I'll be looking back at a whole lot of smoke and ash

When I'm bringing down this house of pain

A whole lot of hurt from a raggedy dusty past

Is in the rubble of the house of pain, yeah

I can't tell the future, but if I ever build a new one

I got a strong foundation, it'll hold up tight

I may never be the same, but that's all right

'Cause I'm bringing down the house of pain

Bring, oh yeah, bring, I'm gonna bring it on down

Bringing down the house of pain, I'll bring it on down

Bring, bring, bringing down the house of pain

I'm gonna huff (huff) and puff (puff) and blow your house down, yeah

Bringing down the house of pain

Bring, bring, oh yeah, bringing down the house of pain
