CrashThe structure comes downWe built


Crash

The structure comes down

We built it together, and we'll take it down together

It may seem like we're divided, but we still have one goal before it's over

To rip down these walls, to demolish these floors, to pile up the rubble and set it a flame

Unfortunate, since it took so long to build

It wasn't perfect but it was ours, and at least I thought that it was beautiful

Why do we fight? 

Why are we so adamantly apart, when together we were happy

The structure comes down much more easily than building it up
