Brick By Brick

And brick by brick, we built a house
And then we broke it down
Word for word, we meant to hurt
And then we killed the sound
Well, it starts with a joke and then it goes up in smoke
And leaves us wondering how
And no one knows that's all she wrote
Well, at least for now

We're building a fire
We warm up in its arms
The tears are like diamonds
Nothing is ever good enough for ya
We're building a fire
We warm up in its arms
Flames are the liars
'Cause nothing here is ever good enough
Nothing here is ever good enough for love

And brick by brick, we built a house
In this crazy town
And word for word, you make love or get hurt
Yeah, I won't back down
And it starts with a kiss, did it end up like this?
Shit, I'm running 'round
It goes to show, you never will know
What life's about, what life's about

We're building a fire
Warm up in its arms
The tears are like diamonds
Nothing is ever good enough for ya
We're building a fire
We warm up in its arms
Flames are the liars
There's nothing here

Stone by stone, we make a home
Just to stroll around, maybe for a while
Close together and still alone
It's quite the life or quite a lie
Oh, we're building a wall right before our eyes
Close together and still alone

Building a fire
To warm up in its arms
Tears are like diamonds
'Cause nothing here is ever good enough for ya
Building a fire
Warm up in its arms
Flames are the liars
Nothing here is ever good enough for ya

Building a fire here
We warm up in its arms
Tears are like diamonds
Nothing here is ever good enough
Nothing here is ever good enough for love
Nothing here is ever good enough, good enough for love
