Brick by Ben Folds and Darren Jessee 6 am day after ChristmasI throw some clothes on in the darkThe smell of coldCar seat is freezingThe world is sleepingI am numb
Up the stairs to the apartmentShe is balled up on the couchHer mom and dad went down to CharlotteThey're not home to find us outAnd we driveNow that I have found someoneI'm feeling more aloneThan I ever have before
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowlyOff the coast and I'm headed nowhereShe's a brick and I'm drowning slowly
They call her name at 7:30I pace around the parking lotThen I walk down to buy her flowersAnd sell some gifts that I gotCan't you seeIt's not me you're dying forNow she's feeling more aloneThan she ever has before
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowlyOff the coast and I'm headed nowhereShe's a brick and I'm drowning slowly
As weeks went byIt showed that she was not fineThey told me son, it's time to tell the truth
She broke down, and I broke downCause I was tired of lying
Driving home to her apartmentFor a moment we're aloneYeah she's aloneI'm aloneNow I know it
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowlyOff the coast and I'm headed nowhereShe's a brick and I'm drowning slowly
