* 8-bar intro
* Verse 1 6;A.M, day after Christmas. I throw some clothes on in the dark. The smell of cold, car seat is freezing. The world is sleeping, I am numb.
* 4-bar break
* Verse 2 Up the stairs to the artment. She is balled up on the couch. Her mom and dad went down to Charlotte. They're not home to find us out; And we drive, Now that I have found someone, I'm feeling more alone Than I ever have before
* Chorus She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly Off the coast and I'm headed nowhere. She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly.
* 6-bar break
* Verse 3 They call her name at 7:30. I pace around the parking lot. Then I walk down to buy her flowers And sell some gifts that I got. Can't you see? It's not me you're dying for. Now, she's feeling more alone Than she ever has before.
* Repeat chorus
* 6-bar break
* Bridge As weeks went by, It showed that she was not fine. They told me, "Son, it's time to tell the truth" And she broke down, and I broke down 'Cause I was tired of lying. Driving home to her artment For a moment, we're alone. Yeah, she's alone. I'm alone. Now I know it.
