A House I Hate - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

I don't think I can do this

Living in a house I hate

With boarded doors I can't escape

Haunted halls I didn't paint

Help me get through this

I can't move out, I've got no choice

I loath the basement despite its toys

How's it supposed to bring me joy?

If it's possible to heal me, heal me

If there's anything worth saving, redeem

If it's possible to change me, would You please?

'Cause I know I can't leave, but I don't want to be

Stuck inside me

My yard was fenced in

To protect me from the neighbor dogs

Good intentions gone all wrong

'Cause the fence blocked out the light of the sun

And now I'm living

In the shadow of a rigid wall

With shame around what I've become

And prejudice toward who I am

If it's possible to heal me, heal me

If there's anything worth saving, redeem

If it's possible to change me, would You please?

'Cause I know I can't leave, but I don't want to be

Stuck inside me

I'm stuck inside me

If it's possible to heal me, heal me

If there's anything worth saving, redeem

If it's possible to change me, would You please?

'Cause I know I can't leave

So I've been remodeling inside my head

Not to change the way it looks

But to change the way I see it

So I've been remodeling inside my head

Not to change the way it looks

But to change the way I see it
