I Built You Up Lyrics

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, to be what I need
Was it too much for you to be someone that you couldn't be?
When it all comes down, like it always does
I can't get even or angry with you for falling because
I built you up, I built you up

I was leaning on love, I let it control me
Just like a crutch, I thought 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 thе moments we had
Therе's a glimmer of hope, if you look at it just right

I built you up, to be what I need
Was it too much for you to be someone that you couldn't be?
When it all comes down, like it always does
I can't get even or angry with you for falling because
I built you up, I built you up
