Bricks

There's bricks in the yard Falling where they flew I'm sure mom and dad Won't give a search for one or two Abandoned in the high grass, the trowel’s left to rust Building is better but breaking is easy and I dont know which to trust I think there must be something wrong with me Like the path that goes unwatched among the very finest edge My eyes are all wide and my stomach distends And I'll do whatver you say I'll say whatever you want If you just put that away If you just perish that thought Why can't we be a normal family? And I'll count my footsteps across the garden stones The faintest love glides six above cement and rust and bones And I'll gather my eggshells softly I guess till I have enough to fill up the nest you're on Draw up the blue prints but I'll never use them Now I've only ever offered you myself and you always say it's not enough Pray for your paralysis while I'm, while I'm coating for your touch And I'll do whatver you say And I will say whatever you want If you just put that away If you just perish that thought Oh, you talk about violence like it doesn't exist As a fire is a womb And a womb is a fist And I'll bend with relief When your tongue comes unglued But I'll seize up inside If your mouth says it's true Don't you wanna be a normal family? A normal family I'm a steel wall I don't want to see anything at all I'm a steel wall I don't need to feel anything at all I don't want to see anything, and I don't need to feel anything I don't want to know anything at all
