Brick Wall

(album: A Short Story Long - 2009)

Are you deaf or is it just me? You're playing games with everyone it's easy to see.

You've shunned me ever since day one. I thought there was a spark, but now there's none.

What do you have against me? And why won't you listen to me?
Am I talking to a brick wall? I might as well be.
Everything I say to you comes right back at me.
You don't listen to the words that I say.
You treat them like trash and you throw them away.

Let your guard down and you'll pay the price. Things won't go the way you want, you know it's not right.
I'm screaming you don't care at all, keep stacking those bricks til the day they fall.

What do you have against me? And why won't you listen to me?
Am I talking to a brick wall? I might as well be.
Everything I say to you comes right back at me.
You don't listen to the words that I say.
You treat them like trash and you throw them away.

This is just a game to you. To you it's all the same, win or lose.

Am I talking to a brick wall? I might as well be.
Everything I say to you comes right back at me.
You don't listen to the words that I say.
You treat them like trash and you throw them away.

Am I talking to a brick wall? I might as well be.
Everything I say to you comes right back at me.
You don't listen to the words that I say.
You treat them like trash and you throw them away.
