This Is Not The House That Pain Built

Song	This Is Not The House That Pain Built
Artist	Dar Williams
Album	The Honesty Room

	作词 : Williams
	My house is hard to find, but I'll give you directions,
	You can visit sometime, down where all that I built surrounds me
	Just make sure your car's got good shocks
	There's steep hills, there's potholes, there's rocks
	I work in the garden, my son plays around me
	Close the gate behind you, there's a horse that can't get out
	I will see you first, is that all right
	And can you remember, can you remember
	This is not the house that pain built
	This is not the house that pain built
	I was drowning in something, I jumped in the rift
	And you knew me back then, when I spat on my gift, but no
	It's tough and it's tiring when you go it alone
	I learned about wiring, I learned about stone
	The building is done but the work's never through
	And I won't give up, no how, it reminds me of who I am and where I am now
	I remember myself, that's the work that I do
	On a spring night when the snow is melting
	You'll see two sets of footprints walking
	Look at all the stars, and turn around, and walk home,
	Slowly walk home.
	This is not the house that pain built
	That is not a house that pain ubilt
	My friends all think that I holed up and hid
	But I tell them I didn't, you know I don't think I did, no.
	And this is where I let my pain go
	This is where I let my pain go
	This is where the footprints dance in the snow
