The Hammers Fall - A Loss For Words

The alarm clock rings…

I feel so weak

And the sunlight shining in my eyes it makes it hard to sleep

The rooms are cold

Smell like piss and blood

Everyday I wake I feel I’m knee deep in the flood

Spending days passing through and moving on

Never realizing what I’ve had until it’s gone

And now my eyes are open wide…

I can’t go on

Singing the same old songs that I have always sung

About life and loss and the places I belong

Singing the same old songs that I have always sung

Hoping the melodies will carry me home…

The alarm clock rings…

The floor is cold, before my eyes are open I’m falling out the door

The wind is fierce

It chaps and burns my eyes

It all sounds well and fine just f*cking try it on for size!

Day in day out

The hammers fall

It’s all in due time that they come to crush us all

And now my eyes are open wide…

I can’t go on

Singing the same old songs that I have always sung

About life and loss and the places I belong

Singing the same old songs that I have always sung

Hoping the melodies will carry me home

Follow this path until it fails

Carry my life on fingernails

I will sing until my throat goes numb

Be the chance you’ll never take

When it stares you in the face

I will sing while I’m still young!

I will sing while I’m still young…
