Brick by brick

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
Tears are like diamonds
But 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's ever good enough
Nothing here's 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
How 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
We warm up in its arms
Tears are like diamonds
But nothing here's ever good enough for ya

We're building a fire
We warm up in its arms
Flames are the liars
Cause nothing here

Stone by stone we make a home
Just to stroll around in it 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

We're building a fire
We warm up in its arms
Tears are like diamonds
Cause nothing here's ever good enough for ya

Building a fire
Warm up in its arms
Flames are the liars
Nothing here's ever good enough for ya

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

Nothing here's ever good enough
Good enough for love
