Bricks
You're laying bricks on my chest
I'm wearing them like a bulletproof vest
I'm trying to breathe but my lungs feel like concrete
My heart rate drops and there's barely a heartbeat
But here I stay as you build your house upon me
The weight is overbearing and I'm going insane
I'd suffer forever if it's you that I gain
You built your house and now you want to sell out
I thought you'd stay but this house is so warn out
There's nothing special about this house anymore
You got bored and started ripping out the floors
And as the house crumbles the only thing left is the doors.
Because I'll always let you in
Even when you break my heart over and over, again and again.
