Hammer

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a hole in the roof And the dust that's pouring through Means you want to build The world again from scratch [Verse 2] 'Cause nothing moved means nothing found But there's a sadness in the sound As the walls crack And the scenes change so fast [Chorus] If you had a hammer You would knock the whole thing down But tell me how you'll build again With what is left of all you've spent? [Verse 3] Beware the time in your life When you feel you have to fight And you know your words No longer mean enough [Verse 4] There's not a whisper to be found As you're marching to the sound Of the wheels turn And the walls tumble down [Chorus] If you had a hammer You could knock this whole thing down But tell me will you build again When all is lost and all is spent? [Pre-Bridge] Knock things down to start again So you tear it up to find escape You'd do anything just to bring this down Call it a sinking ship, you set the sun [Bridge] You want a way out you're begging for it There's no chance of your escape You'd buy your way out, sell everything But there's nothing left of all we've built [Chorus] If you had a hammer You could knock this whole thing down But tell me will you build again When all is lost and all is spent? [Chorus 2] Oh, if you had a dollar You would hide yourself away But in your silence find some sense That there is no one else to blame [Outro] I found you out You set the sun Falling far I found you out You set the sun There's no way out I found you out And inside the sun I found you out I found you out
