Carry a Brick - The Damned Things

Go and meet your eyeless fate

The grief will only last until you’re gone

Vision without courage makes us far too late

We’d do anything to slow the setting sun

Time is turned back by the bottle

So I built a bed of foam and broken glass

The threat is dead before my money’s gone

Come on out, we’re all coming in last

You’re gonna take my life and when you do

I won’t follow you

I won’t follow you

Leaving me is the right thing to do

But I won’t follow you

I won’t follow you

Offer up your beating heart

To a sky that might absorb the boiling blood

We dance until we’re dead but still no sign of rain

We’d do anything to resurrect the love

You’re gonna take my life and when you do

I won’t follow you

I won’t follow you

Leaving me is the right thing to do

But I won’t follow you

I won’t follow you

Put down that weight

You’re swimming up a river

Put down that weight

You’re carrying a brick, carrying a brick

Put down that weight

You’re swimming up a river

Put down that weight

You’re carrying a brick, carrying a brick

You’re gonna take my life and when you do

I won’t follow you

I won’t follow you

Leaving me is the right thing to do

But I won’t follow you

I won’t follow you

You’re gonna take my life and when you do

I won’t follow you

I won’t follow you

Leaving me is the right thing to do

But I won’t follow you

I won’t follow you

Follow you

Follow you
