Brick By Boring Brick

Brick By Boring Brick

She lives in a fairy tale
Somewhere too far for us to find
Forgotten the taste and smell
Of a world that she's left behind

It's all about the exposure
The lens
I told her the angles were all wrong
Now She's ripping wings off of butterflies

Keep your feet on the ground
When your head's in the clouds

Go get your shovel
And we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle

So one day he found her crying
Coiled up on the dirty ground
Her prince finally came to save her
And the rest you can figure out

But it was a trick and the clock struck 12
Well make sure to build your home
Brick by boring brick
Or the wolf's gonna blow it down

Keep your feet on the ground
When your head's in the clouds

Go get your shovel
And we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle

You built up a world of magic
Because your real life is tragic

If it's not real you can't hold it in your hands
You can't feel it with your heart
And I won't believe it
But if it's true you can see it with your eyes
Even in the dark
And that's where I want to be

Go get your shovel
And we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle
