OK Go - The House Wins lyrics

Fingers blistered from the nightly
Scratching at the window
Which won't open far enough to let air in

The house wins oh, the house always wins

Feral cats are screaming at the
Clouds beneath the window
With the crack so small
That nothing gets within the house wins
Oh, the house always wins

You don't have to be alone to be lonely
You might as well give in

Telephones are howling at the cats
Out in the alley
And the window offers nothing in the din

The house wins oh, the house always wins

Clouds uncage the car alarms to
Chase the cats and telephones
Fingers rake and rasp away their skin

The house wins oh, the house always wins

You don't have to be alone to be lonely
You might as well give in
Yeah, you don't have to be alone to be lonely
You might as well give in

Ice age upon catastrophic ice
Age of selection
And only one result has trickled in

The house wins oh, the house always wins

If evil were a lesser breed than
Justice after all these years
The righteous would have freed
The world of sin

The house wins oh, the house always wins

You don't have to be alone to be lonely
You might as well give in
You don't have to be alone to be lonely
You might as well give in

(You don't have to be alone)
You don't have to be sick to be dying
You might as well give in
(You don't have to be alone)
You don't have to have lost to be lost
Oh, give in
You don't have to be alone to be lonely
You might as well give in
