The floorboards are bendin', you wore 'em down
The windows are breakin' to let you out
Ain't nobody mowin' the lawn
The ghosts have all moved on
You're the only one who's lingering around
These four walls are runnin' out o' days
Can't be what it was
Even if ya stay
It's another lonely winter
If ya never leave
Can't take it up to heaven
Mama, can't you see
That it's just a house?
It's just a house
The front door is giving you permission
It won't close, it won't be your prison
It's hanging on like your heart
But it all wants to fall apart
So just let it, you will be forgiven
These four walls are runnin' out days
Can't be what it was
Even if ya stay
It's another lonely winter
If you never leave
Can't take it up to heaven
Mama, can't you see
That it's just a house?
You can move on now
Yeah, mama, you can move on now
These four walls are runnin' out days
Can't be what it was
Even if ya stay
It's another lonely winter
If you never leave
Can't take it up to heaven
Mama, can't you see?
That these four walls are runnin' out days
Can't be what it was
Even if ya stay
It's another lonely winter
If you never leave
Can't take it up to heaven
Mama, can't you see
That it's just a house?
Oh, c'mon let's move on out
C'mon let's move on out
