Songtexte Hammer - Lorde

There's a heat in the pavement
My mercury's raising
Don't know if it's love or if it's ovulation
When you're holding a hammer, everything looks like a nail
The mist from the fountain is kissing my neck
The liquid crystal is in my grip
Anyone with a snake tongue, I'll show em the chambers of my heart
Now I know you don't deal much in love and affection
But I really do think there could be a connection
I burn and I sing and I scheme and I dance Some days I'm a woman, some days I'm a man

I mighta been born again
I'm ready to feel like I don't have the answers
There's peace in the madness over our heads
Let it carry me up, up, up, up up—

Today I'll go to Canal Street, they're piercing my ears
I'm making a wish when the needle goes in
Take an aura picture, read it and tell me who I am
(Show me who I am)
Now I know you don't deal much in love and affection
But I really do think you could make an exception
It's a beautiful life, so why play truant?
I jerk tears and they pay me to do it

I mighta been born again
I'm ready to feel like I don't have the answers
There's peace in the madness, over our heads
Let it carry me up, up, up, up, up—

Let it break me down til I'm just a breath
Til I'm just a voice living in your head
It's a fucked up world, been to hell and back
But I've sent you a postcard from the edge
