"Brick By Brick" lyrics

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
Warm up in it's arms
The tears are like diamonds
Nothing here's ever good enough for ya
We're building a fire
Warm up in it's 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 build 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
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
Warm up in it's arms
The tears are like diamonds
Nothing here's ever good enough for ya
We're building a fire
Warm up in it's arms
Flames are the liars
There's nothing here

Stone by stone we make a home
Just to stroll around, maybe 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

Building a fire
To warm up in it's arms
Tears are like diamonds
Cause nothing here's ever good enough for ya
We're building a fire
Warm up in it's arms
Flames are the liars
Nothing here is ever good enough for ya
Building a fire here
We warm up in it's 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
