6 am day after Christmas
I throw some clothes on in
The dark

The smell of cold
Car seat is freezing
The world is sleeping and

I am numb
Up the stairs to her apartment
She is balled up on the couch

Her mom and dad went down
To Charlotte
They're not home to find us

Out
And we drive
Now that I have found someone

I'm feeling more alone
Than I ever have before


CHORUS:

She's a brick and I'm drowning

Slowly
Off the coast and I'm headed
Nowhere

She's a brick and I'm drowning
Slowly


They call her name at 7:30

I pace around the parking lot

Then I walk down to buy her
Flowers
And sell some gifts that I got

Can't you see
It's not me you're dying for
Now she's feeling more alone

Than she ever has before

Repeat Chorus


As weeks went by
It showed that she was not fine

They told me son it's time
To tell the truth
And she broke down and I broke

Down
'Cuz I was tired of lying
Driving back to her apartment

For the moment we're alone
She's alone
And I'm alone

Now I know it

Repeat Chorus til end
