Brandon Word - You Can't Fix Me

When you first walked in, you thought you'd be done fast
Fixing up this old house
Well you found out pretty quick, it'd be no easy task
Once you had a look around

Because this house is me
And I told you I'm a wreck, but you said trust me
Well I guess you like a project
But I warned you every step along the way

You can't fix me, take a look around
The carpet's coming up and the walls are coming down
I'm falling apart
It'll take more than you can give to make this house a home
You can't fix me, you can't fix me

Well God bless your gentle heart, you didn't even flinch
Or say "How could someone live this way?"
You said we'll take this apart, and we'll clean it inch by inch
My heavy heart, it turned away

Because this house is me
And I'm embarrassed to admit
That I'm scared to see
How I survive without it
But I'm still not convinced that you can do what you think you can do

You can't fix me, take a look around
The carpet's coming up and the walls are coming down
I'm falling apart
It'll take more than you can give to make this house a home
You can't fix me, you can't fix me

These four walls are all I know
And it's so hard just to let go

But I'll let go
Yeah, I'll let go

You've done a lot of good, you put in all the work
Fixing up this old house
More than I thought you would, for nothing in return
There's more to do but I've got it now

Because this house is me
And these problems are my own
So let me fix me
I'll make this house a home
Just bear with me, just bear with me

And I'll fix me if you wait a little more
I'll renovate myself from the ceiling to the floor, but it's okay
If you can't wait forever, just in case I keep my word
But I'll fix me, yeah I'll fix me
Watch me fix me, I swear I'll fix me
