Riendeau - Mama, Get The Hammer lyrics

rate me

Acrylic lips in black and white,<br />

Pictures scatter the floor,<br />

Screaming it’s not her fault. <br />

Should we have known? <br />

<br />

She took me to where we first spoke, <br />

Masking her words with sincerity. <br />

The rifts in the air gave her away,<br />

And just as she swallowed,<br />

I tore the words from her throat. <br />

<br />

Arterial anchors, <br />

Tied to the pleat, <br />

Cast over side,<br />

Let them decide,<br />

If I’ll be tied. <br />

Tied to my past, <br />

Praise I’ve amassed, <br />

Feelings unsurpassed. <br />

The love I’ve lost, <br />

All the love I’ve lost. <br />

Let my future go, <br />

Let my words encode. <br />

<br />

Oh my god, <br />

This can’t be real, <br />

So take control. <br />

Take control. <br />

You broke the code. <br />

<br />

Porcelain skin cold and cracked on the floor, <br />

It’s not her fault. <br />

Here, lets make this easy: <br />

You pour the shot and I’ll take the fall. <br />

<br />

Cover your eyes,<br />

This may sting some. <br />

<br />

And just under the horizon, <br />

I laid parallel with the sky. <br />

Ready for war, <br />

Ready for anything that could take me away from here. <br />

And when I measured my will to breathe, <br />

I found my heart about to stop, so just take it away.<br />

And just before leaving this behind,<br />

Just before leaving me behind,<br />

My body went to war with my veins.<br />

Just take it away.<br />

<br />

And in the midst of this struggle,<br />

I could feel my arms bending back.<br />

I could feel my knees giving way. <br />

In an attempt to breathe, <br />

I rewrote all her words. <br />

<br />

And I swear I’ll make it worth it this time.
