[Verse 1]
We signed a lease on a lie
Bought plates, bought plants
Took pics, fake smiles
For your mom, for the ‘Gram
You loved my wounds
I loved your damage back
Two broken doors
On the same hinge, cracked
You said, "You’re my home"
I heard "You’re my crutch"
You liked my chaos
I liked your touch too much
Every fight ended
In a tired embrace
Didn’t fix nothing
Just taped over the vase (yeah)
[Chorus]
We built this house with no heart in it
Four cold walls and the dark in it
We hold on tight just to sink again
Calling it love but it’s something else
We need each other just to feel okay
Hate each other when we’re face to face
We call this home but it feels like hell
Codependent in a broken shell (yeah, yeah)
[Verse 2]
You threatened to leave
Just to watch me beg
I packed my bags
Just to test your head
We traded "sorry"
Like a credit card
Swipe it every night
Still living scarred
You knew my passcode
You checked my phone
I checked your mood
Before I came home
We planned that wedding
In a silent war
Rings in the drawer
But the love on the floor (on the floor)
[Chorus]
We built this house with no heart in it
Four cold walls and the dark in it
We hold on tight just to sink again
Calling it love but it’s something else
We need each other just to feel okay
Hate each other when we’re face to face
We call this home but it feels like hell
Codependent in a broken shell (ohh)
[Bridge]
You say, "I can’t live
I can’t live alone"
I say it right back
Like a tired ringtone
We’d rather be hurting
Than be apart
Two empty hands
Clutching one cracked heart (yeah)
[Chorus]
We built this house with no heart in it
Four cold walls and the dark in it
We hold on tight just to sink again
Calling it love but it’s something else
We need each other just to feel okay
Hate each other when we’re face to face
We call this home but it feels like hell
Codependent in a broken shell (codependent in a broken shell)
