Brickwork (For New Students)

I put up this wall to stop the flood
I put up this wall to hold it back
I put up this wall to help myself
The brickwork crumbles.

I put up this wall to stop the hurt
I put up this wall to stop the thought
I put up this wall to block the past
The brickwork's crumbling...

I put up this wall to block home
I put up this wall to move forward
I put up this wall to divide
The brickwork's crumbling

I put up this wall to testify
I put up this wall to correct
I put up this wall to move ahead
The brickwork crumbles

I put up this wall for days like these
I put up this wall for days like this
I put up this wall for times like those
The brickwork crumbles

I put up this wall to stop the flood
I put up this wall to stop the hurt
I put up this wall to block home
The brickwork's gone...
