I built a man made out of bricks, and lived inside his chest
|
I beat my head against the wall to make a heart beat in his breast
|
I smashed my fist against his ribs to suck the air inside
|
And swing by swing, and blow by blow, I brought that man to life
|
|
I built a man and cut his skin, and lived inside his heart
|
I pumped it with my fingertips, and loved it from the start
|
And with every beat I gave him a heartbeat of my own
|
And I filled his veins with the blood I had
|
|
Till his blood,
|
Till his blood,
|
Till his blood,
|
Was my own
|
|
Oh, I'd build you up, but we're not made of the same stuff,
|
And even though I knocked you down, you're so much stronger than me
|
Well, I would build you up, but we're not made of the same stuff,
|
And even though I knocked you down, you're so much stronger than me
