Lyric Nebraska Bricks

And I grew up
on alcoholic evenings and slow jazz music to keep my heart beating
because after all that happens in a dissolving family
the need for a song to sing me to sleep still rings true
and I always knew that there wasn t glue strong enough
to sew these roots together
and now that I ve wasted too many years
and I ve lost track of where I started
I have to dream at night of who I was and why after twenty years of marriage
I am what is left and I d like to go back now
and make myself up because I d be a brick so I wouldn t feel
and I d lift myself up and I d throw myself at this house
to break windows and smash walls
just to keep time where it was and where it should be.
