The Hammer and the Nail Lyrics
Fight the horde
Scratch the nails
Beware the charging lion's tails
In all the blackest of the blues
I need a longer fuse
Whenever I fail
A cradle and a son
The cradle rocks
Don't be, don't ever let me feel those shocks
What's creeping in, is creeping out
It's what was talked about
Whenever in doubt
Then you thrust a hammer to the nail
Broken bones I witness again
You need to demand
No need for consent
Oh... make them understand.
Use the guns to fight the war
I could come, and
I could be so much more
'Cause I can see the black is turning blue
As blue I feel for you
Whenever I fail
Cradle and the shock,
The cradle and a son
Oh, see, can't you see them come
And I'll be firing up the fuse
With nothing left to lose
I turn into sand
Then you thrust a hammer to the nail
Broken bones I witness again
You need to demand
No need for consent
Oh... make them understand
Whenever I fail
Whenever I fail
Whenever I fail
Scratch the nails
Beware the charging lion's tails
I need a longer fuse
Whenever I fail
The cradle rocks
Don't be, don't ever let me feel those shocks
It's what was talked about
Whenever in doubt
Broken bones I witness again
You need to demand
No need for consent
I could come, and
I could be so much more
As blue I feel for you
Whenever I fail
The cradle and a son
Oh, see, can't you see them come
With nothing left to lose
I turn into sand
Broken bones I witness again
You need to demand
No need for consent
Whenever I fail
Whenever I fail
