Brick by brick
Stone by stone
I had built us a home
We were happy
so content
each day in love, we had spent
A ring I gave
Our wedding was bliss
We sealed the deal with such a kiss
But we married young
That was our Flaw
A tragic end we can’t detour
It was my fault, I spoke too soon
I took your freedom
I stopped your bloom
You were under pressure
I chose to ignore
I watched you sob upon the floor
Broken trust and broken hearts
Arguments tore us apart
Food splattered upon our walls like art
Cracks appeared
Bricks to dust
Then everything began to rust
Paint was chipped
And flowers died
While every night I knew you cried
Brick by brick
stone by stone
You and I don’t have a home
