lyrics

Brick by brick, memory by memory
I'm building a shelter to hide my identity
& every now & then I'll let someone in
To find out how lonely, disgusting, & creepy I am
Brick by brick, memory by memory
I'm building a Castle to keep out the Enemy
& every now & then, I'll let someone in to Love

This monster is running; He's running wild.
They finally caught him now he's facing a trial
He murdered a family of dolphins in cold blood
When asked to testify he just smiled and said
"I am a Monster, it's all I can do,
I like to murder cute animals, I'd kill you too"
Then the Lord of the Manor, with his mallet in hand;
He ordered him exiled to a foreign land

& now it's Brick by brick, memory by memory
I'm building a shelter to hide my identity
& every now & then I'll let someone in
To find out how lonely, disgusting, & creepy I am
Brick by brick, memory by memory
I'm building a Castle to keep out the Enemy
& every now & then, I'll let someone in to Love

This Monster's alone now in a land of his own
He likes pretty flowers & picking his nose
He's building a wall & he's digging a moat
& he's carving a tree for a fancy throne
& he looks really happy, but he's crying inside
He's got nothing to murder cept killing time
So he practices growlin' at his face in the Lake
& stomps around just to feel the ground shakin'

& now it's Brick by brick, memory by memory
I'm building a shelter to hide my identity
& every now & then I'll let someone in
To find out how lonely, disgusting, & creepy I am
Brick by brick, memory by memory
I'm building a Castle to keep out the Enemy
& every now & then, I'll let someone in to Love

& I can't make it in this world alone
& I can't make it in this world alone
& I can't make it in this world alone
& I can't make it in this world alone
& I can't make it in this world alone
& I can't make it in this world alone
& I can't make it in this world alone
& I can't make it in this world alone
& I can't make it in this world alone.
