One Brick at a Time

Intro

Oh

Oh-oh

Chorus

Tiptoe through the pieces I left behind

Every memory got another knife inside

Built my own coffin one brick at a time

Calling it a home afraid to climb

Verse 1

Bathroom light flicker eyes bloodshot red

Whole world hanging by a thread in my head

White dust porcelain washing off my sins

But the water never reaches where the damage begins

Bathroom light flicker eyes bloodshot red

Whole world hanging by a thread in my head

White dust porcelain washing off my sins

But the water never reaches where the damage begins

Chorus

Tiptoe through the pieces I left behind

Every memory got another knife inside

Built my own coffin one brick at a time

Calling it a home afraid to climb

Verse 2

Heart like a locked room keys all rust

Everybody says heal who do I trust

Your name carved deep underneath my ribs

Every breath still costs me what the past gives

Chorus

Tiptoe through the pieces I left behind

Every memory got another knife inside

Built my own coffin one brick at a time

Calling it a home afraid to climb

Bridge

Mirror talks back it knows my fate

Says you built this prison now decorate

Loose thread hanging from the sleeve of my soul

One more pull and I lose control

Chorus

Tiptoe through the pieces I left behind

Every memory got another knife inside

Built my own coffin one brick at a time

Calling it a home afraid to climb
