Lyrics
Intro
acoustic padmaleWe did not buy a house, we made one fitPaint in our hair and a stubborn bitYou hung the curtains, I hung the doorWe slept on the floor a week or more
Chorus
togetherWe built this quiet with our own two handsNo big announcement, no marching bandsIf anybody wonders what we areWe built this quiet, here we are
Solo
femaleThe porch still leans and the faucet dripsYou kiss my cheek and you bite your lipI would not trade it for a cleaner placeI like the evidence on your face
Chorus
togetherWe built this quiet with our own two handsNo big announcement, no marching bandsIf anybody wonders what we areWe built this quiet, here we are
Bridge
[Together] Leave the scuff marks, leave the nailsThat is how a real life tells its tales
Outro
We built this quietHere we are
