People are sad and I know why
With no chance to live before you die
                                       
You get pretty sick if you hafta keep it inside

I wanna build a house where an ad don't scream
I wanna leave in peace - quietly
                              
I wanna have a place of love & safety

People oughta live how & where they want
People oughta have respect in front
                             
People oughta get along pretty O.K.

So get off my dick
                        
I'm building it brick by brick
         
Brick by brick

I'm building a house where I can think
And have some balance and dignity
I'm building a house where no one can hurt me

I'm buidling a house where the weak are strong
I'm building a house with a real song
I'm using a faith that is immortal

I'm building it with simplicity
And the way that we feel, you and me
I'm building it with what I believe in

So get off my dick
'cause I'm building this
Brick by brick
Brick by brick
Brick by brick

                   
Now I'm looking at just a little time
    
So be it
   
I want to
        
be true to my simple heart
                         
And not put nothing else above it
