brick

the clock strikes 12, i'm at a party
it's new years and i'm with someone
i kiss him then steal a moment
i message you
and i am
scared

the months go by, i see you often
it's hard to breath when you're around
i make a move, you make a move
but we're to blind to notice it

i just smile
lose myself just for a while
don't you see
that it's you i'm dying for?

we're on our way down to toronto
the bus is packed but we're alone
i touch your hand
you touch my hand
i can not look up
i am
scared

the night goes on, i try to focus
the moment caught in my head
i love my friends, but all i want is
to be back on that bus again

i just smile
lose myself just for a while
can it be?
is it me you're dying for?

we're at my house a few days later
we're watching tv on the couch
our friends are gone, my heart is racing
i feel your thoughts
and i am
scared

you make your move, my movement with you
i'm caught in heavens afterglow
you break it off, look into me
you ask to take it somewhere else

i just smile
lose myself just for a while
now i see
that it's me you're dying for

our friends find out, you're getting worried
we confirm everything they've known
the smell of cold, i glimps the future
i brush it off
but i am
scared

we keep it up, tell all our secrets
i'm falling deeper in your eyes
i touch your hand, we're out in public
you pull away
appologize

i just smile
lose myself just for a while
can't you see
it's not me you're dying for?


as weeks went by it showed that we were not fine
and i'm feeling more alone than i ever have
she's a brick
and i'm drowning
cuz i am tired
of lying


we're driving back to my apartment
and for the moment we're alone
and she's alone
and i'm alone
and now i know it

i just smile
lose myself just for a while
now i see
it's not me you're dying for
