The Bricklayer's Son Testo

Oh, this is what I've become
I am the bricklayer's son
Born at the wrong time

Oh, the weight, it leads me astray
But I will not stand in your way
If you don't stand in mine

My mind, it moved like mercury
Through the thin plasticine Of your heart's circuitry

Oh well, at least it did until
A whole damn mountain of pills
Buried me

But I won't come back you see
Don't take it so personally
It's just when you look at me
I see it bright as the sun
My failures all at once

Now I live with a girl
At the edge of the world
She's a bricklayer too

Oh, I loved her right from the start
When she ripped out my heart
She reminds me of you
But I won't come back you see
Don't take it so personally
It's just when you look at me
I see it bright as the sun
My failures all at once

Oh, this is what I've become
I am the bricklayer's son
But I'm not wasting my time

Oh, the weight, it leads me astray
But I will not stand in your way
If you don't stand in mine see less
