Brick By Brick

Katy Perry · Mtv Unplugged

The weight of my words

Are like feathers from a bird

My mouth, it moves

But you won't hear a thing

Cause I've dug myself deep

I managed to fit both my hands and feet

All my little white lies

Smell like a big old bucket of bleach



In one ear and out your other

So lock and key

You won't open up for me



CHORUS

So brick by brick

I am breaking through these walls

Oh between you and me,

I'm not giving up

I'm not giving up on us



And it feels like you're in China

And I am in Peru

Whenever I am sleeping next to you

We can hear the crickets singing

Oh all throughout the night

Oh boy can't you just get used

To something so right?



And sure I confess

I'm a mess, I'm a mess of mistakes

But please count to ten

Before you go and throw it all away



CHORUS

So brick by brick

I am breaking through these walls

Oh between you and me,

I'm not giving up

I'm not giving up on us



Cause if you give up

Then what am I supposed to do?

All my dreams never will come true

Without you-oo



CHORUS

So brick by brick

I am breaking through these walls

Oh between you and me,

I'm not giving up, yeah-y

I'm not giving, giving up on us

I'm not giving, giving up



Oh baby,

Don't give up on this love

Don't give up on this love
