Sticks & Bricks - A Day To Remember

I am fueled by all forms of failure.

I paid the price.

So, I’ll take what’s mine!

I bet you didn’t see that one comin'

'Cause I do as I please,

And apologize for nothing.

My time is flying,

But I’m still second to none.

Always shining the brightest

When I’m placed under the gun.

So, here I stand,

The only son of a working-class man.

I won’t be held back.

I can’t be held down.

Where were you

When my walls came falling down?

(They came falling down)

You tried to hide,

You stood close by

And didn’t make a sound!

(Say something!)

Find you some paper

And I’ll go grab you a pen.

You can start taking notes

How this all started again.

Been dead last

but found my way to the front.

Shared my inspirational quotes

On why I never gave up!

Where were you

When my walls came falling down?

(They came falling down)

You tried to hide,

You stood close by

And didn’t make a sound!

Where were you

When it all came back around?

(It goes back around)

The reasons why you passed me by

Will always hold you down.

(Say something!)

If you can’t stand the pressure,

Stay the fuck out of my way!

I know my place!

This one goes out to everyone

Who’s lied to my face!

My heart is filled with hate!

I’m making a difference,

I’m taking a chance.

You can say what you want about me,

But no one can tell me I can’t!

Where were you

When my walls came falling down?

(They came falling down)

You tried to hide,

You stood close by

And didn’t make a sound!

Where were you

When it all came back around?

(It goes back around)

The reasons why you passed me by

Will always hold you down.

Say something!
