When I was young
All of my heroes hung on my walls
Back when good and evil was easy to call
Now nothing is easy
I never thought this kingdom would crumble
I feel like a fool watching it tumble
If I told you I didn?t blame you
Would you believe me?
After all is said and done
I built you up, (ooh, ooh)
To be what I need (ooh, ooh)
Was it too much for you to be someone that you couldn?t be?
When it all comes down, (ooh, ooh)
Like it always does (ooh, ooh)
I can?t get even or angry with you for fallin'-in because
I built you up,
I built you up
I was leaning on love, I let it control me
Just like a crutch, I though it could hold me
Now I?m on the floor singing I saw the light
Well it wasn?t all good, but it wasn?t all bad
I can see both in the moments we had
There?s a glimmer of hope,
When you look at it just right
And I built you up, (ooh, ooh)
To be what I need (ooh, ooh)
Oh was it too much for you to be someone that you couldn?t be?
'Cause when it all comes down, (ooh, ooh)
Just like it always does (ooh, ooh)
Well I can?t get even or angry with you for fallin'-in because
I built you up, Yeah ah ah yeah ah ah
Yeah so I can?t get even or angry with you for fallin'-in because
I built you up
I built you up
I built you up, (ooh, ooh)
