~The Only Exception~Brick By Boring Brick~*In Singapore's at 7 March 2010*

When I was younger I saw my daddy cry
and curse at the wind.
He broke his own heart and I watched
as he tried to reassemble it.

And my momma swore
that she would never let herself forget.
And that was the day that I promised
I'd never sing of love if it does not exist.

But Darling,
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.

Maybe I know somewhere
deep in my soul
that love never lasts.
And we've got to find other ways
to make it alone.
Keep a straight face.
And I've always lived like this
keeping a comfortable distance.
And up until now I had sworn to myself
that I'm content with loneliness.
Because none of it was ever worth the risk.

Well you are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.

I've got a tight grip on reality,
but I can't let go of what's in front of me here.
I know you're leaving in the morning
when you wake up.
Leave me with some kind of proof its not a dream.

You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.

You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.

I'm on my way to believing
And I'm on my way to believing



{Verse 1}
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ She lives in a fairy tale
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Somewhere too far for us to find
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Forgotten the taste and smell
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Of a world that she's left behind
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ It's all about the exposure, the lens, I told her
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ The angles are all wrong now
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ She's ripping wings off of butterflies

{Pre-Chorus}
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Keep your feet on the ground
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ When your head's in the clouds

{Chorus}
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Well go get your shovel
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ And we'll dig a deep hole
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ To bury the castle, bury the castle
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Go get your shovel
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ And we'll dig a deep hole
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ To bury the castle, bury the castle

Ba-da ba ba-da ba ba da

{Verse 2}
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ So one day, he found her crying
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Coiled up on the dirty ground
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Her prince finally came to save her
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ And the rest you can figure out
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ But it was a trick
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ And the clock struck twelve, well make sure
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ To build your house brick by boring brick
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Or the wolf's gonna blow it down

{Pre-Chorus}
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Keep your feet on the ground...
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ When your head's in the clouds...

{Chorus}
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Well go get your shovel
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ And we'll dig a deep hole
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ To bury the castle, bury the castle
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Go get your shovel
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ And we'll dig a deep hole
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ We'll bury the castle, bury the castle

{Bridge}
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Well you built up a world of magic
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Because your real life is tragic
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Yeah you built up a world of magic...

­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ If it's not real
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ You can not hold it in your hands
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ You can't feel it with your heart
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ And I won't believe it
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ But if it's true
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ You can see it with your eyes
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Oh, even in the dark
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ And that's where I want to be, yeah!

{Chorus}
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Go get your shovel
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ And we'll dig a deep hole
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ To bury the castle, bury the castle
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Go get your shovel
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ And we'll dig a deep hole
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ To bury the castle, bury the castle

{Outro}
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Ba-da ba ba-da ba ba da
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Ba-da ba ba ba-da ba ba
[X3]
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Ba-da ba ba-da ba ba da
­­­­ ­­­ ­­ ­­­ Ba-da ba ba ba ba-ba ba ba
