The weight of my words Are like feathers from a bird My mouth, it moves But you won't hear a thing 'Cause I've dug myself deep I managed to fit both my hands and feet All my little white lies Smell like a big old bucket of bleach In one ear and out your other So lock and key You won't open up for me So brick by brick I am breaking through these walls Oh, between you and me I'm not giving up I'm not giving up And it feels like you're in China And I am in Peru Whenever I am sleeping next to you We can hear the crickets singing Oh, all throughout the night Oh, boy can't you just get used To something so right? And sure I confess I'm a mess, I'm a mess of mistakes But please count to ten Before you go and throw it all away So brick by brick I am breaking through these walls Oh, between you and me I'm not giving up I'm not giving up 'Cause if you give up Then what am I supposed to do? All our dreams Never will come true without you So brick by brick I am breaking through these walls Oh, between you and me I'm not giving up I'm not giving up on us
