"Brickman" lyrics
Wake up, little baby, I need you to find me a brickman
To build me a wall just as fast and as high as he can
Make it higher than high, wider than wide could ever be
To keep out all the demons and I'll pray to the Lord you'll forgive me
And she said
Darkness descends and I failed to pretend what I was looking for
'Cause I was oceans away and I longed for the day I'd be next to you
This old soldier's alone as I stare at the phone, it's that time again
I guess the brickman never came, you might as well bury me where I'm standing
And she said
And I'm standing alone at the top of the hill
If this God doesn't find me, the other one will
Standing alone at the top of the hill
And I'm dying
To build me a wall just as fast and as high as he can
Make it higher than high, wider than wide could ever be
To keep out all the demons and I'll pray to the Lord you'll forgive me
And she said
Darkness descends and I failed to pretend what I was looking for
'Cause I was oceans away and I longed for the day I'd be next to you
This old soldier's alone as I stare at the phone, it's that time again
I guess the brickman never came, you might as well bury me where I'm standing
And she said
And I'm standing alone at the top of the hill
If this God doesn't find me, the other one will
Standing alone at the top of the hill
And I'm dying
