Sledgehammer lyrics

[Verse 1]

I hit a wall, I never felt so low, so low

Like a waterfall, my tears dropped to the floor, the floor

They left a swimming pool of salted crimes, crimes

Oh, what could I do to change your mind?

Nothing

[Pre-Chorus 1]

I'm bracing for the pain and I am letting go

I'm using all my strength to get out of this hole

[Chorus]

I hit a wall, I thought that I would hurt myself

Oh I was sure, your words would leave me unconscious

And on the floor I'd be lying cold, lifeless

But I hit a wall, I hit 'em all, watch the fall

You're just another brick and I'm a sledgehammer

You're just another brick and I'm a sledgehammer

[Verse 2]

Yeah I hit a wall, I prayed that I would make it through, make it through

I can't survive a life that's without you, that's without you, yeah

And I will rise up from the ashes now, the ashes now

Oh, the sparrow flies with just the crumbs of loving spilled, yeah

[Pre-Chorus 2]

I was bracing for the pain and then I let it go

I gathered all my strength and I found myself whole

[Chorus]

I hit a wall, I thought that I would hurt myself

Oh I was sure, your words would leave me unconscious

And on the floor I'd be lying cold, lifeless

But I hit a wall, I hit 'em all, watch the fall

You're just another brick and I'm a sledgehammer

You're just another brick and I'm a sledgehammer

You're just another brick and I'm a sledgehammer

You're just another brick and I'm a sledgehammer
