Lyrics
Here we stand or here we fall
History won't care at all
Make the bed, light the light
Lady Mercy won't be home tonight, yeah
You don't waste no time at all
Don't hear the bell, but you answer the call
It comes to you as to us all (oh)
We're just waiting for the hammer to fall, yeah
Oh, every night and every day
A little piece of you is falling away
But lift your face the western way
Build your muscles as your body decays, yeah
Toe your line and play their game, yeah
Let the anaesthetic cover it all
'Til one day they call your name
You know it's time for the hammer to fall
Rich or poor or famous
For your truth it's all the same (oh no, oh no)
Lock your door, the rain is pouring
Through your window pane (oh, no), yeah
Baby, now your struggle's all in vain
For we who grew up tall and proud
In the shadow of the mushroom cloud
Convinced our voices can't be heard
We just wanna scream it louder and louder and louder
What the hell we fighting for?
Just surrender and it won't hurt at all
Just got time to say your prayers
While you're waiting for the hammer, to hammer to fall
Hey, it's
It's gonna fall
Hammer, you know
Yeah, hammer to fall
Woo!
Yeah, yeah
Woo-woo!
While you're waiting for the hammer to fall
Baby, yeah
While you're waiting for the hammer to fall
Give it to me one more time
