Kishi Bashi
Brick by Brick (MTV Unplugged)
[Verse 1]
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
[Pre-Chorus 1]
In one ear and out your other
So lock and key
You won't open up for me
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
And it feels like you're in China
And I am in Peru
Whenever I am sleeping next to you, oh
We can hear the crickets singing
Oh, all throughout the night
Oh, boy, can't you just get used to something so right?
[Pre-Chorus 2]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
'Cause if you give up
Then what am I supposed to do?
All of our dreams never will come true without you
[Chorus]
So brick by brick
I am breaking through these walls
Oh, between you and me
I'm not giving up, up, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm not giving, giving up
I'm not giving, giving up
[Outro]
Oh, baby
Don't give up on this love
