Safety Bricks Lyrics
You can never really start from the start
The ending begins inside of your heart
Well the people, they love to remember your name
It's a hospital bed but it's all just the same
Why did you leave when you were returned
Your past is your future, your future will learn
The crows that fly, we'll try not to find
You do things once, you know you'll do it twice
Still I want kids with safety bricks
And a car that's quick
So we can split
Why did protection burn down your home?
The smoke was so rich that they gave you a throne
We're turning cruel hands into some rice
Three times a charm, three times you pay the price
Still I want kids with safety bricks
And a car that's quick
So we can split
I want kids with safety bricks
And a car that's quick
So we can split
The middle should live inside of your brain
I'll stop for a moment and try to refrain
I'm hoping you love just like when you were a kid
Let's hop a fence and do what we always did
The ending begins inside of your heart
Well the people, they love to remember your name
It's a hospital bed but it's all just the same
Your past is your future, your future will learn
The crows that fly, we'll try not to find
You do things once, you know you'll do it twice
And a car that's quick
So we can split
The smoke was so rich that they gave you a throne
We're turning cruel hands into some rice
Three times a charm, three times you pay the price
And a car that's quick
So we can split
I want kids with safety bricks
And a car that's quick
So we can split
I'll stop for a moment and try to refrain
I'm hoping you love just like when you were a kid
Let's hop a fence and do what we always did

Let's hop a fence and do what we always did
i THINK that always should be almost.
great song off of a great album
I don't know how Drew does it, but all his songs seem to have an intimate feel. One of my favourites from the album.
is it just me or does this song sound like feist - past in present
it totally does sound like past in present. but i loooove the chorus so much.
Wow, I was just listening to this and thought "this is so Feist-y," so I came here to post that, only to find I'm not the only one who noticed. I'm kind of relieved that I'm not the only one who thinks so, hahah.
Sooo good.
Very similar sound. Also keep in mind that Drew and Feist have been making music together for almost a decade...that might explain it. SO happy for this album. BSS has really changed to landscape of pop and rock in recent years, and it is great to see people like Kevin Drew and Feist finally getting some attention as individuals. Also, J. Mascis AND Spiral Stairs are on this album, which makes it officially kickass.
