Brick By Boring Brick

Well, 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

Well, go get your shovel

And we'll dig a deep hole

To bury the castle, bury the castle

Go get your shovel

And we'll dig a deep hole

To bury the castle, bury the castle

Ba-da-ba, ba-da-ba-ba-da

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-by boring brick

Or the wolf's gonna blow it down

Keep your feet on the ground

When your head's in the clouds

Well, go get your shovel

And we'll dig a deep hole

To bury the castle, bury the castle

Go get your shovel

And we'll dig a deep hole

And we'll bury the castle, bury the castle

Whoa

Whoa, whoa

Well, you built up a world of magic

Because your real life is tragic

Yeah, you built up a world of magic

Well, if it's not real

You can't hold it in your hand

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

Oh, even in the dark

And that's where I want to be, yeah

Go get your shovel

And we'll dig a deep hole

To bury the castle, bury the castle

Go get your shovel

And we'll dig a deep hole

To bury the castle, bury the castle

Ba-da-ba, ba-da-ba-ba-da

Ba-da-ba-ba, ba-da-ba-ba

Ba-da-ba, ba-da-ba-ba-da

Ba-da-ba-ba, ba-da-ba-ba (ba)

Ba-da-ba, ba-da-ba-ba-da

Ba-da-ba-ba, ba-da-ba-ba

Ba-da-ba, ba-da-ba-ba-da

Ba-da-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba-ba-ba
