what does it take to break someone
what does it take to make them whole again
where are the walls that you once built
have they fallen down

brick by brick and stone by stone
you thought this fortress would make you strong
all it did was keep everyone out
and it's gone on too long

so here I come to help you put it all back together
so here I come telling you it's ok to need another
my dearest friend it's the least I can do
someday soon I'm gonna need you too

taking out the things that close you off
leaving in the ones that hold you up
give you space where you can learn to love
all that you are

brick by brick and stone by stone
we'll tear this prison down and build you a home
where you don't need bars on the windows to your soul
and you can rest easy

so here I come to help you put it all back together
so here I come talling you it's ok to need another
my dearest friend it's the least I can do
someday soon I'm gonna need you too

Brick by Brick
