When the Hammer Came Down
My eyes are wide open, my head hanging down
I was running through the woods like a rabbit being
chased by the hounds.
On the side of the road lies a jawbone cracked
Some poor dead beast out in the sun, rotting in the sun
Oh yeah, alright well I was almost home
When the hammer came down
The more I know and the more I see
Well, I would have never known when the hammer came down
Daddy had a hammer that could shine like gold
Man, it sounded like thunder
He could really make the thunder roll
Raise them up higher, higher bringing it down
But you never knew the difference, never knew when the
sun went down
Oh yeah, alright well I was almost home
When the hammer came down
The more I know and the more I see
Well, I would have never known when the hammer came down
68 hammers ringing, ringing a line
Days so long and I'm so far behind
Wake up, please wake up and help me this time
I made it to the river but couldn't get across
And rising up in front of me a crown of glory shattered
and lost
Put away my sorrows and put away my pain
And I'm never ever looking back 'cause nothing ever
gonna be the same
Oh yeah, alright well I was almost home
When the hammer came down
The more I know and the more I see
Well, I would have never known when the hammer came down
I was almost home, almost home
when the hammer came down
I was running through the woods like a rabbit being
chased by the hounds.
On the side of the road lies a jawbone cracked
Some poor dead beast out in the sun, rotting in the sun
Oh yeah, alright well I was almost home
When the hammer came down
The more I know and the more I see
Well, I would have never known when the hammer came down
Daddy had a hammer that could shine like gold
Man, it sounded like thunder
He could really make the thunder roll
Raise them up higher, higher bringing it down
But you never knew the difference, never knew when the
sun went down
Oh yeah, alright well I was almost home
When the hammer came down
The more I know and the more I see
Well, I would have never known when the hammer came down
68 hammers ringing, ringing a line
Days so long and I'm so far behind
Wake up, please wake up and help me this time
I made it to the river but couldn't get across
And rising up in front of me a crown of glory shattered
and lost
Put away my sorrows and put away my pain
And I'm never ever looking back 'cause nothing ever
gonna be the same
Oh yeah, alright well I was almost home
When the hammer came down
The more I know and the more I see
Well, I would have never known when the hammer came down
I was almost home, almost home
when the hammer came down
