These guilty arms are empty now
I made this bed I'm crying on

I'm dying here, it's dark and cold
It only took one night but, Lord, it's built to last
I built this wall I can't get past

It's a heartache wide stands treetop tall
Oh, I'm the only one to blame, I dug this hole
These guilty arms are empty now
Just like the heart I broke in two it's hard as stone
I dug this hole, I made this bed, I built this wall

You can't go back once love is dead
I lost it all, my dreams and plans
It's a heartache wide, stands treetop tall
See what a fool can do with just two hands
I built this wall I can't get past
It only took one night but, Lord, it's built to last
See what a fool can do with just two hands
They were holding someone else when they let her down
I dug this hole, I made this bed, I built this wall
I dug this hole, I made this bed, I built this wall
I lost it all, my dreams and plans
Look at me now, I dug this hole, I made this bed
They were holding someone else when they let her down
