Lyrics:

There's a house on the corner, lives a man who went to war And it tries to give him shelter from the pain of what he saw There's a child out the window painting faces in the snow And they smile a sad reminder of a life he used to know There's a house on the corner, lives a man with empty eyes For his heart has been broken for he was sold a pack of lies Hold me closer (you know I can't) Hold me closer (but you don't understand) Hold me closer, open your heart Hold me closer (I'm so alone) Hold me closer (Oh you'll never know) Hold me closer, open your heart For he fought for his country, now he fights to clear his name For the dead are always heroes and the living live in shame And he said Hold me closer (you know I can't) Hold me closer (but you don't understand) Hold me closer, open your heart Hold me closer (I'm so alone) Hold me closer (Oh you'll never know) Hold me closer, open your heart
