If you take a moment and think about it

We are the bricks in the wall

We don't matter to the builders

We don't matter to anyone

We will break and crack and be worn down

No one will stop it, no one will fix us

And it doesn't matter because we're just bricks in the wall

And we'll never matter because we're just bricks in the wall

We have names no one asks anymore

James

Maddison

Laurie

Jack

Leo

Edna

Reilly

Emma

Zach

Forget those names

Right now, forget them.

You can't, can you?

To you they aren't bricks

To you they are your peers, friends, family

That doesn't make you anything - you are still a brick

Just like me

Just like the square of muddy red next to you

And we'll  stay bricks

We will alway be bricks in the wall

Until that is, the wall shakes and wobbles. Then we are more than bricks, then we become important

But until then, you are just another brick in the wall
