[Verse 1] If a tree fell in the forest And no one was around to hear it Baby, does it go boom? Does it go boom? If I have love for ya But you were never close enough to feel it Is my love any good? Is my love any good? Oh [Pre-Chorus] But the distance ain't even a room away You're laying in the bed right next to me But there might as well be a brick wall in between us Some soundproof gla** And some bars in the middle Oh baby, when I wanna talk to you I'm conversing with bricks and steel A pile of bricks and steel And when I tap your shoulder You're cold as bricks and steel A pile of bricks and steel [Chorus] How do I stay in love with your rubbish All the leftovers and garbage Was it ever real If you were never here? Bricks and steel, walk around my kitchen Like a pile of bricks and steel Bricks, bricks Steel, steel [Verse 2] I know you're somewhere in there Sometimes I wanna pick up a hammer And start chiseling away, away Chiseling away, away Girl my phone bill is crazy The rate is sky high when I call ya But you only let it ring You only let it ring, oh [Pre-Chorus] But the distance ain't even a room away You're laying in the bed right next to me Oh but there might as well be a brick wall in between us Some soundproof gla** And some bars in the middle Oh baby, when I wanna talk to you I'm conversing with bricks and steel A pile of bricks and steel And when I tap your shoulders You're cold as bricks and steel A pile of bricks and steel [Chorus] And how do I stay in love with your rubbish Shorty leftovers in garbage Was it ever real If you were never here? Bricks and steel, walk around my kitchen Like a pile of bricks and steel Bricks, bricks Steel, steel [Bridge] Stomp, stomp I think I hear ‘em coming down the hall He don't hear a word I say at all I'm wishing these 4 walls could talk, talk Oh, stomp, stomp I think I hear ‘em coming down the hall and He don't hear a word I said, oh, oh, oh [Pre-Chorus] Oh baby, when I wanna talk to you I'm conversing with bricks and steel A pile of bricks and steel And when I tap your shoulders You're cold as bricks and steel A pile of bricks and steel [Chorus] How do I stay in love with your rubbish All the leftovers and garbage Was it ever real If you were never here? Bricks and steel, walk around my kitchen Like a pile of bricks and steel Bricks, bricks Steel, steel
