[00:12]6am
[00:14]Day after christmas
[00:17]I throw some clothes on
[00:18]in the dark.
[00:21]The smell of cold
[00:24]Car seat is freezing
[00:27]The world is sleeping
[00:29]I am numb.
[00:42]Up the stairs
[00:44]to her apartment.
[00:47]She is balled up
[00:48]on the couch.
[00:51]Her mom and dad
[00:54]Went down to Charlotte.
[00:56]They're not home
[00:58]to find us out.
[01:01]And we drive.
[01:06]Now that I
[01:08]have found someone,
[01:10]i'm feeling more alone
[01:15]than i ever have
[01:17]before.
[01:20]She's a brick and i'm
[01:22]drowning
[01:23]slowly.
[01:25]Off the coast
[01:27]and i'm headed nowhere
[01:30]She's a brick and i'm
[01:33]drowning
[01:34]slowly.
[01:51]They call her name
[01:53]at 7:30.
[01:56]I pace around
[01:57]the parking lot.
[02:01]And I walk down
[02:03]to buy her flowers
[02:06]and sell some gifts
[02:07]that I got.
[02:11]Can't you see?
[02:16]It's not me
[02:17]you're dying for.
[02:19]Now she's feeling
[02:20]more alone
[02:24]than she ever has
[02:26]before.
[02:29]She's a brick and i'm
[02:32]drowning
[02:33]slowly.
[02:34]Off the coast
[02:36]and i'm headed
[02:38]nowhere.
[02:39]She's a brick and i'm
[02:41]drowning
[02:43]slowly.
[02:57]As weeks went by
[03:00]you showed
[03:01]that she
[03:03]was not fine
[03:05]they told me "son"
[03:07]it's time to tell
[03:10]the truth and
[03:12]she broke down
[03:14]i broke down
[03:16]cause i was
[03:18]tired
[03:23]of lying.
[03:35]Driving back
[03:37]to her apartment
[03:40]for the moment
[03:42]we're alone.
[03:45]She's alone.
[03:47]I'm alone.
[03:50]Now i know it.
[03:54]She's a brick and i'm
[03:56]drowning
[03:57]slowly.
[03:59]Off the coast
[04:00]and i'm headed
[04:02]nowhere.
[04:04]She's a brick and i'm
[04:06]drowning
[04:07]slowly.
[04:17]THE END
