Brick by boring brick

This song is from Paramore, an American rock band from Franklin, Tennesse, formed in 2004. The band consists of lead vocalist Hayley Williams, bassist Jeremy Davis, and guitarist Taylor York.
Brick by boring brick is in my opinion one of the best songs I've ever heard. Maybe its music isn't the best but I think its lyrics are really strong and certainly true. In fact, all their lyrics have a deep meaning between the lines, like all the songs, but it's different because most of their songs have a meaning of overcoming, and they always remind me that I can't surrender. Well, here I am leaving you the lyrics of this amazing song and a video to hear it. Enjoy yourselves with my song! ;)

..
She lives in a fairy tale
Somewhere too far for us to find
Forgotten the taste and smell
Of the world that she's left behind
It's all about the exposure the lens I told her
The angles were all wrong now
She's ripping wings off of butterflies
With her feet on the ground
And her head in the clouds
Well go get your shovel
And we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle,
bury the castle
Ba da ba da ba
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 wolves gonna blow it down
With her feet on the ground
And her head in the clouds
Well go get your shove
l And we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle
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't see it with your eyes
You can't feel it with your heart
And I won't believe it
Cause if it's true
You can see it with your eyes
Even in the dark
And that's where I want to be,
yeah Go get your shovel
We'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle,
bury the castle
Ba da ba da ba...
