Lyrics for Hammer

As I try to exist Without caring 'bout the voices in my head, analysing You would know, your head gets full too I see it in the cloud that you carry We could go and try to build a life Without these worries bringin' us down Just hold me close and be yourself I want it, I want it all I'm all I need, but oh, how I want you She's lookin' back from the mirror With wide eyes, guilty Painting a picture Half the time, I feel like mine But the other half is wrapped up in you I'm giving in, I'm checking out I'm on a mission and that mission concerns you I would like to wrap my world up with you Make our lives two times the sweeter It's sweeter to be in your corner It's never been any clearer Just wake me up in that way And nothing else matters I'm not afraid anymore Like I was when you first looked at me that way I'm not afraid like I was The first time that you looked at me that way I didn't know it yet But there was somethin' in the words you said There was a motion in my heart And I didn't see it coming But it was comin' for so long Now as it washes over me I can see how it took so long I'm standin' at the altar and the world is singin' at me And as I whisper to myself This is the moment and I'm melting into it Now's all I need when moments with you are so infinite And there's moments that take me higher, help me see Here I go playin' with fire but that's just me Don't bring me down, bring me down I just wanna breathe easily Just lift me up, lift me up So I can see more See over the walls that I built with my own hands I'll get the hammer, you put on the music Let's break them down I'll get the hammer, you play the music And let's dance
