I wanna build you up
Brick by brick
I wanna break you down
Brick by brick
I'm gonna reconstruct
Brick by brick
I wanna feel your love
Brick by brick, ah-ah-ah
Brick by brick, ah-ah-ah
I wanna steal your soul
Brick by brick
I wanna rock and roll
Brick by brick
I wanna rock and roll
Brick by brick
I wanna rock and roll
Brick by brick, ah-ah-ah
Brick by brick, ah-ah-ah
I wanna brick by brick
Brick by brick
I wanna blow by blow
Brick by brick
I want an empty soul
Brick by brick
I wanna brick by brick by brick by
Brick by brick, ah-ah-ah
Brick by brick, ah-ah-ah
Brick by brick, ah-ah-ah
Brick by brick, ah-ah-ah
