The Hammer Holds |
| A shapeless piece of steel, that’s all I claim to be This hammer pounds to give me form, this flame, it melts my dreams |
| I glow with fire and fury, as I’m twisted like a vine |
| My final shape, my final form I’m sure I’m bound to find |
| So dream a little, dream for me in hopes that I’ll remain |
| And cry a little, cry for me so I can bear the flames |
| And hurt a little, hurt for me my future is untold |
| But my dreams are not the issue here, for they, the hammer holds |
| And the water, it cools me gray, and the hurt’s subdued somehow |
| I have my shape, this sharpened point, what is my purpose now? |
| And the question still remains, what am I to be? |
| Perhaps some perfect piece of art displayed for all to see |
| So dream a little, dream for me in hopes that I’ll remain |
| And cry a little, cry for me so I can bear the flames |
| And hurt a little, hurt for me my future is untold |
| But my dreams are not the issue here, for they, the hammer holds |
| The hammer pounds again, but flames I do not feel |
| This force that drives me, helplessly, through flesh, and wood reveals |
| A burn that burns much deeper, it’s more than I can stand |
| The reason for my life was to take the life of a guiltless man |
| So dream a little, dream for me in hopes that I’ll remain |
| And cry a little, cry for me so I can bear the pain |
| And hurt a little, hurt for me, my future is so bold |
| But my dreams are not the issue here, for they, the hammer holds |
| This task before me may seem unclear |
| But it, my maker holds |
