Brick

Album: Ben Folds Five Durasi: 4:45
[00:22.48]Six a.m, day after Christmas
[00:27.25]I throw some clothes on in the dark
[00:32.43]The smell of cold, car seat is freezing
[00:37.64]The world is sleeping, I am numb
[00:44.14]🎵
[00:53.58]Up the stairs to her apartment
[00:58.65]She is balled up on the couch
[01:03.65]Her mom and dad went down to Charlotte
[01:09.07]They're not home to find us out
[01:14.43]And we drive
[01:19.62]Now that I have found someone
[01:23.31]I'm feeling more alone
[01:28.14]Than I ever have before
[01:34.17]She's a brick and I'm drownin' slowly
[01:39.22]Off the coast and I'm headed nowhere
[01:44.23]She's a brick and I'm drownin' slowly
[01:49.97]🎵
[02:05.44]They call her name at 7:30
[02:10.41]I pace around the parking lot
[02:15.58]And I walk down to buy her flowers
[02:20.62]And sell some gifts that I got
[02:26.03]Can't you see
[02:31.34]It's not me you're dying for
[02:34.88]Now she's feeling more alone
[02:39.96]Then she ever has before
[02:45.10]She's a brick and I'm drownin' slowly
[02:51.05]Off the coast and I'm headin' nowhere
[02:55.89]She's a brick and I'm drownin' slowly
[03:01.32]🎵
[03:14.68]As weeks went by
[03:17.19]It showed that she was not fine
[03:22.09]They told me, "Son, it's time to tell the truth"
[03:27.91]And she broke down and I broke down
[03:34.33]'Cause I was tired of lying
[03:42.61]🎵
[03:52.37]Driving back to her apartment
[03:57.46]For the moment we're alone
[04:02.17]Yeah, she's alone and I'm alone
[04:07.41]And now I know it
[04:12.04]She's a brick and I'm drownin' slowly
[04:17.33]Off the coast and I'm headed nowhere
[04:22.08]She's a brick and I'm drownin' slowly
[04:29.22]🎵
