lyrics

Fast forward to the part where Monica's
Making eyes at everyone
I play the part of "that guy in the corner
Who's waiting for somebody to come"
I guess it's my turn for her to gravitate
She's given everybody hugs
Is that your twin, your cousin, or are you just taking all of the same drugs?

I'm seeing two, I'm seeing four of you
Flying on the Pixie train
Just take away the wigs and the cigarettes
And everybody looks the same
I grow a pair and ask if she likes music
She grows an ego and decides to leave
Somehow she's dancing to Joy Division
While she's stealing everybody's weed

But nobody really knows you
Cause they're scared of what they'll find
Just go smoke another cig
Cause when they sneak up from behind...

She's a Brick Wall
A flash of a passion
But there's nothing on the other side
A Brick Wall
The back of reality's
The only place where she can hide

She could be mean, she could be bubbly
When there's no one else around
But she's neither, she's nothing, she's high as the sky, and her wall's never coming down

Flash back to the tainted memories
Filling up the morning sky
To California with a broken memory
Thinking it's a place to hide
A sunset and an endless party
Are too good to be true
You're home now, cause they're all phonies
And faking it just like you

Now everybody thinks they know you
And there's nothing else to hide
So go smoke another empty heart
Cause when they sneak up from behind...

She's a Brick Wall
A flash of a passion
But there's nothing on the other side
A Brick Wall
The back of reality's
The only place where she can hide

She could be mean, she could be bubbly
When there's no one else around
But she's neither, she's nothing, she's high as the sky, and her wall's never coming down

I say it like I've got everything figured out
But I don't
I think I’ll open up her lifeless eyes
But I won't

She's a Brick Wall
A flash of a passion
But there's nothing on the other side
A Brick Wall
The back of reality's
The only place where she can hide

She could be mean, she could be bubbly
When there's no one else around
But she's neither, she's nothing, she's high as the sky, and her wall's never coming down

No, no
I thought this was over but they build up almost every day
Brick walls, pretty to look at but they're always getting in the way
