Cold Bricks
You know
I just don't get you
You say you wanna try
Make it work
You beg me
To take you back
I tell you I got this
Big brick wall
I built it with the stones
You threw at me
And now you want me
To tear it down
So I did, a little
Just a few bricks
Too many really
And I let you see me
Again
You loved that
You thanked me for that
You promised you'd
Respect that
Your words were sweet and loving
Your touch tender and real
Then we rolled around the weekend
And you're nowhere to be had
OK, big deal, right?
Right
Big deal
I am left here to wonder
Be mature
Be cool
Chill
I am left here to chill
Oh, and I have
Indeed I have
Cold as an ice queen
I just don't get you
Literally.
Thanks for replacing those bricks
