[Verse 1]
Show me a sign, show me a reason to give
A solitary fuck about your goddamn beliefs
I'm going blind, but one thing's clear
Death is the only salvation you'll feel

[Chorus]
Brick by brick by brick
Brick by brick by brick

[Verse 2]
What you call faith, I call a sorry excuse
Cloak and daggers murder the truth
The bitter taste, there's nothing else
I'll bow for your king when he shows himself

[Chorus]
Brick by brick by brick
These walls begin to cave in
The house of wolves you built
Whispers in a thousand tongues

[Verse 3]
Show me your face, show me a reason to think
My soul can be saved if I sell you my sins
I'm going blind, but one thing's clear
Death is the only salvation for me

[Chorus]
Brick by brick by brick
These walls begin to cave in
The house of wolves you built
Whispers in a thousand tongues

[Post-Chorus]
The house of wolves you built
The house of wolves you built
The house of wolves you built
Will burn just like a thousand suns

[Breakdown]
Yeah!
And when you die, the only kingdom you'll see
Is two foot wide and six foot deep, yeah!
And when you die, the only kingdom you'll see
Is two foot wide and six foot deep!
And when you die, the only kingdom you'll see
Is two foot wide and six foot deep, oh!

[Pre-Chorus]
Brick by brick by brick
Brick by brick by brick

[Chorus]
Brick by brick by brick
These walls begin to cave in
The house of wolves you built
Whispers in a thousand tongues
Brick by brick by brick
These walls begin to cave in
The house of wolves you built
Will burn just like a thousand suns

[Outro]
You said you want me
Now I'm here! Now I'm here! Now I'm here!
You said you want me
Now I'm here! Now I'm here! Now I'm here!

Bring Me The Horizon are a British alternative rock band from Sheffield, Yorkshire—often stylised as simply “BMTH” or shortened to “Bring Me.” Formed in 2003, the group currently consists of lead vocalist Oliver “Oli” Sykes, lead guitarist Lee Malia, bassist Matt Kean, drummer Matt Nicholls, and keyboardist Jordan Fish.

The name of the band was taken from Captain Jack Sparrow’s line in the first Pirates of the Caribbean which he “Bring me that horizon.” Oli stated in an interview with Spin how the name connects with his vision of the

Right at the end of the film—it might even be the very last line—Johnny Depp says, “Bring me that horizon.” That was really inspiring. I was still living with my parents in Sheffield, England, when the movie came out [in 2003]. For me and the band, playing music was always wrapped up with the idea of touring and traveling and seeing the rest of England and the rest of the world. We never thought doing that was possible, but that’s what we wanted to do. So that quote sort of stands in for our feeling of wanting to see what the planet had to offer.
