Brick By Brick

People are sad and I know why

With no chance to live before you die

You get pretty sick if you hafta keep it inside

I wanna build a house where an ad don't scream

I wanna leave in peace - quietly

I wanna have a place of love & safety

People oughta live how & where they want

People oughta have respect in front

People oughta get along pretty O.K.

So get off my dick

I'm building it brick by brick

Brick by brick

I'm building a house where I can think

And have some balance and dignity

I'm building a house where no one can hurt me

I'm buidling a house where the weak are strong

I'm building a house with a real song

I'm using a faith that is immortal

I'm building it with simplicity

And the way that we feel, you and me

I'm building it with what I believe in

So get off my dick

'cause I'm building this

Brick by brick

Brick by brick

Brick by brick

Now I'm looking at just a little time

Em

So be it

I want to

be true to my simple heart

And not put nothing else above it
