I was a fortress, built on solid rock I stood Watched the ages fall around me they swept into the sea I was a kingdom, full of life and liberty When they all would bow before me, in a land where they were free Till I let you in and you stormed my walls You broke me down, just to watch me fall The hands that held me now tear me apart The land I loved home of my heart Got me crumbling down, crumbling down, baby brick by brick Got me crumbling down, crumbling down, take me bit by bit Got me crumbling down, crumbling down, baby bone by bone Got me crumbling down, crumbling down, take me stone by stone I was a fortress, now I'm ashes in the fire Of a love that knew my weakness and fooled me with desire I was a kingdom, now a distant memory All the life I held inside me, now dust beneath your feet 'Cause I let you in and you stormed by walls You broke me down, just to watch me fall The hands that held me now tear me a part The land I loved, home of my heart Got me crumbling down, crumbling down, baby brick by brick Got me crumbling down, crumbling down, take me bit by bit Got me crumbling down, crumbling down, baby bone by bone Got me crumbling down, crumbling down, take me stone by stone Stone by stone, gonna get ya, gonna get ya Get you crumbling dow see less
