lyrics

you build up your foundation
and you hoist up your walls
you throw your back into it
just to watch it fall
well everything must come down
some old night or some old day
and in the end when your work’s undone
how quickly it’s all gone away

you spend your life a ploughing
driving horses, planting seeds
and then your strength is torn from you
like your spirit’s just a weed
well everything must come down
some old night or some old day
and in the end when your work’s undone
how quickly it’s all gone away

you press your pen to the page
as the words start flowing through
but your memory ain’t what it used to be
and you’ve forgotten all that you once knew
well everything must come down
some old night or some old day
and in the end when your work’s undone
how quickly it’s all gone away

you tell her that you’ll be there for her
and you try to make it true
but you mix like oil and water
and you crumble like dried up glue
well everything must come down
some old night or some old day
and in the end when your work’s undone
how quickly it’s all gone away
yes in the end when your work’s undone
how quickly it’s all gone away
