Brick
Ben Folds Six a.m. 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 They're not home to find us out Her mom and dad went down to Charlotte She is balled up on the couch And we drive I'm feeling more alone Than I ever have before Now that I have found someone She's a brick and I'm drownin' slowly She's a brick and I'm drownin' slowly Off the coast and I'm headed nowhere They call her name at sevenI pace around the parking lot And 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 Then she ever has before Now she's feeling more alone Off the coast and I'm headed nowhere She's a brick and I'm drownin' slowly She's a brick and I'm drownin' slowly As weeks went by It showed that she was not fine They told me, "Son it's time to tell the truth," and Cause I was tired of lying She broke down and I broke down Driving back to her apartment For the moment we're alone And I'm alone Yeah she's alone Now I know it Off the coast and I'm headed nowhere She's a brick and I'm drownin' slowly She's a brick and I'm drownin' slowly |
