The Hammer And The Nail
I’ve been disguised by sunken eye
I sleep in cars and shout at stars
The killer said I’m not quite dead
Replied then I must hide
Please don’t say I’m stuck in wood
That I could sink like metal should
And I see the ocean envelope me Like I was meant to be a baby
And I see the ocean envelope me Like I was meant to be a baby
An old scrap heap, I heard him creep
He sawed the rust and struck at dusk
All my hope he crushed and choked
So my life won’t wait inside this crate
And please don’t say I’m stuck in wood
That I could sink like metal should
And I see the ocean envelope me Like I was meant to be a baby
And I see the ocean envelope me Like I was meant to be a baby, oh
