Hello, are you drowning deep inside? 
 Does it make you want to cry? 
 All the words we said, 
 Were they meaningless, 
 Like the time we spent? 
    Hello, we've built this house of lies, 
 And we'll tear it down in spite 
 Of the times we had, 
 All the good and bad 
 And it makes me want to scream   
 So wave goodbye to your old life 
 Cause we built this house on broken dreams 
 And we locked the keys inside 
 And take your plans and say we tried 
 Cause we built this house on broken dreams 
 We locked the keys inside   
 Hello, I've listened to your lines 
 And I wrote this down in spite 
 Of the times we had, 
 All the good and bad 
 And it makes me want to scream   
 So wave goodbye to your old life 
 Cause we built this house on broken dreams 
 And we locked the keys inside 
 And take your plans and say we tried 
 Cause we built this house on broken dreams 
 We locked the keys inside   
 Rupture this, I won't close my eyes and follow you 
 Fracture that, I'm doing everything I wanted to 
 (Wave goodbye) 
 Rupture this, I won't close my eyes and follow you 
 Fracture that, I'm doing everything I wanted to 
 (Say we tried)   
 Wave goodbye to your old life 
 We built this house on broken dreams 
 We locked the keys inside 
 Take your plans and say we tried 
 We built this house on broken dreams 
 We locked the keys inside   
 Yeah, we locked the keys inside
