6 am day after Christmas
I throw some clothes on in the dark
The smell of cold
Car seat is freezing
The world is sleeping
I am numb
Up the stairs to the apartment
She is balled up on the couch
Her mom and dad went down to Charlotte
They´re not home to find us out
And we drive
Now that I have found someone
I´m feeling more alone
Than I ever have before
She´s a brick and I´m drowning slowly
Off the coast and I´m headed nowhere
She´s a brick and I´m drowning slowly
They call her name at 7:30
I pace around the parking lot
Then I walk down to buy her flowers
And sell some gifts that I got
Can´t you see
It´s not me you´re dying for
Now she´s feeling more alone
Than she ever has before
She´s a brick and I´m drowning slowly
Off the coast and I´m headed nowhere
She´s a brick and I´m drowning slowly
As weeks went by
It showed that she was not fine
They told me son, it´s time to tell the truth
She broke down, and I broke down
Cause I was tired of lying
Driving home to her apartment
For a moment we´re alone
Yeah she´s alone
I´m alone
Now I know it
She´s a brick and I´m drowning slowly
Off the coast and I´m headed nowhere
She´s a brick and I´m drowning slowly
