Have you been to the broken bricks girl
Snuck down through the cyclone fence
Past the caution tape
And the security gate
Back way to the break room bench
Well there's a little corner 
Where you first got kissed
And felt your boyfriends fist 
And made the company list
And there's a little spot 
Where your dad ate lunch
And your brother landed his first punch yeah,yeah,yeah

Well have you been to the broken bricks girl
Seen the barrels that they left behind
Seen the machine 
That cut aluminum clean
And got tape from the caution sign
And broke into the window panes
Just a rusty colored rain 
That drives a man insane
You try to jump over water 
But you land in oil
Climb the ladder up a broken crane 
Yeah,yeah,yeah

Don't go to the broken bricks girl
It's not a place that you want to be
Think of the spot your father spent his life
Demolition calls it 
Building see
Demolition calls it 
Building see now
Demolition calls it 
Building see now
