People are so sad and I know why
|
With no chance to live before you die
|
You get pretty sick if you hafta
|
Keep it inside
|
|
I wanna build a house where an ad don't scream
|
I wanna live in peace-quietly
|
I wanna have a place of love and safety
|
People oughta live how and where they want
|
People oughta have respect in front
|
People oughta get along pretty O.K.
|
|
So get off my dick
|
I'm building it brick by brick
|
Brick by brick
|
|
I'm building a house where I can think
|
And have some balance and dignity
|
I'm building a house where no one can hurt me
|
I'm huilding a house where the weak are strong
|
I'm building a house with a real song
|
I'm using faith that is immortal
|
I'm building it with simplicity
|
and the way that we feel, you and me
|
I'm buidling it with what I believe in
|
|
So get off my dick
|
I'm building it brick by brick
|
Brick by brick
|
|
Now I'm looking at just a little time
|
So be it-I want to
|
Be true to my simple heart
|
And not put nothing else above it
|
Brick by brick
|
Brick by brick
|
Brick by brick
|
Brick by brick
|
Brick by brick by brick
|
