Build Again from Build Again by Steel Minds Artists Coalition

Life came in like a hurricane
Swept away what we had made
Every brick and every stone
Years of work, now overthrown
I'm standing in the rubble here
Watching all we held so dear
Crumble down without a sound

It's easy to tear down
What took us so long to build
Easy to break down
The love our hearts once held
You can break down in a day
What took years to create
Easy to tear down
But hard to build again

Remember when we started fresh
Hearts beating in our chests
Laying down the cornerstone
Making this place feel like home
Now I'm picking up the pieces
With a trust that never ceases
As long as we resolve to stand

It's easy to tear down
What took us so long to build
Easy to break down
The love our hearts once felt
You can break down in a day
What took years to create
Easy to tear down
But hard to build again

I could point the finger
I could place the blame
Destruction's easier
Than starting over again
So I'll take these broken pieces
And I'll learn to build once more
Even though what's gone is gone
We'll claim the strength we had before

It's easy to tear down
What took us so long to build
Easy to break down
The love our hearts once held
You can break down in a day
What took years to create
Easy to tear down
But hard to build again

But I'll build again
We'll build again
I know it's hard
But we'll build again
