Brick Wall

(앨범: Noise - 2009)

Ooooh, ohh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Ooohh, oh-oh-oh-ohhh

At the end of every day
I have to stop myself and question
The nature of the demon I'm continuously wrestling
Am I fighting the good fight?
Taking a high road
Hitting the high note

I've been known to blow my horn
Just to garner some attention
Though the nature of my noise
Is often too burnt out to mention
Still I can't keep it in
Yes, I've got to make sound
Well, it has to get out

So I keep on running that brick wall
'Till it gives or I do
Ooh-oh-oh nobody can stop me
So don't, so don't even try to
Ooh-oh-oh

Chasing after that ball
As long as I've got a right to
Running that brick wall
'Till it gives
'Till it gives
'Till it gives
'Till it gives

Ooohh-Ooohhh, ohh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Ooohh-Ooohhh, ohh-oh-oh-oh-oooh
Ooh-oh-oh oh oh

Somehow the battle always ends up pitting pride against cash
But your very first insult, it best be your last
So I made that call and walked out of my job
Walked home to find, damn I got, damn I've been robbed
And it's a joke how quick your hopes can come tumbling down
You turn to soothe the burn [?] and there was no one around
So you thicken your skin and you tighten your chops
And you never ever let it drop
You just keep on

Running that brick wall
'Till it give or I do
Oh-oh nobody can stop me
So don't, so don't even try to
Ah-ah-ah
Chasing after that ball
As long as I've got a right to

Running that brick wall
'Till it gives
'Till it gives
'Till it gives
'Till it gives
It has to-ooh
It has to-ooh

Ooohh-Ooohhh, ohh-oh oh-oh oh-oh-oh

And I love the way your shoes stay in my doorway
Love the way your shirt hangs up on my chair
Love the way my bed smells
Love the way your sweat smells
Love the way I can't quite get my toes to uncurl

And I love the way I'm up
And you're still sleeping
Love the way I can't untangle my hair
Even love the rug burn
Love the way you tugs turn me on 'til I'm open and completely unfurled

Ooohh-Ooohhh, ohh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Ooohh-Ooohhh, ohh-oh-oh-oh-oooh
Ooh, oh-oh-oh
Mmmmm-mmm-mmmmm

So now the question of the hour
Is this something I can handle?
Cause everything I build up
Ends up being dismantled
Where's the limit, I ask
Am I fooling myself?
Does this need to be shelved?

So I bought a pack of cigarettes
To help me face the weather
And Travis keeps on telling my
Girl, get your shit together!

Am I taking it boy
Yes, I'm taking it
I'm taking it
I'm taking it
I'm taking it all
I just keep on

Running that brick wall
'Till it gives or I do
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Nobody can stop me
So don't, so don't even try to
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Chasing after that ball
As long as I've got a right to

Running that brick wall
'Till it gives
'Till it gives
'Till it gives
'Till it gives
'Till it gives

I keep running that brick wall
'Till it gives or I do
Oh-oh-oh
Nobody can stop me
So don't, so don't even try to
Oh-ohhh
Chasing after that ball
As long as I've got a right to
Ohhhhh

Running that brick wall
'Till it gives
'Till it gives
'Till it gives
'Till it gives
It's gotta give
It's gotta give
It has to
It has to
It has to
