Hammer

It's been a long day, take off your shoes
It's been a hard year, I'm talking to you
Are we gonna make it? 'Cause I have to
I don't wanna be here, but I do

And I called the doctor, and he said there's nothing wrong
And I called the pastor, and he said that love is strong
And there is no answer, but I want one anyway
And I swing the hammer just as hard as I can take

And I run away 'cause I ruined mine
And I fall asleep 'cause I get so tired
And it's hard to say what the trouble is
I'll run away 'til it's all behind
And I called the doctor, and I said, "My heart is wrong"
And I called the pastor, and I said, "I can't go on"
And there is no answer, and I just can't be saved
And I swing the hammer just as hard the other way

And I run away 'cause I ruined mine
And I fall asleep 'cause I get so tired
And it's hard to say what the trouble is
I'll run away 'til it's all behind
