Brick Lyrics by Ben Folds Five

Brick Lyrics

    6 am day after Christmas
    I throw some clothes on in the dark
    The smell of cold
    Car seat is freezing
    The world is sleeping
    I am numb

    Up the stairs to her apartment
    She is balled up on the couch
    Her mom and dad went down to Charlotte
    they're not home to find us out
    And we drive

    Now that I have found someone
    I'm feeling more alone
    Than I ever have before
    She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly

    they call her name at 7:30
    I pace around the parking lot
    then I walk down to buy her flowers
    And sell some gifts that I got
    Can't you see
    It's not me you're dying for
    Now she's feeling more alone
    Then she ever has before
    She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly
    off the coast and I'm headed nowhere
    She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly

    As weeks went by
    It showed that she was not fine
    They told me son it's time to tell the truth
    She broke down and I broke down
    Cause I was tired of lying
    Driving home to her apartment
    For the moment we're alone
    She's alone
    I'm alone
    Now I know it
