Local Birdlife

I hit a wall
I never felt so low, so low
Like a waterfall
My tears dropped to the floor, the floor
They left a swimming pool
Of salted crimes, crimes
Oh, what could I do
To change your mind? Nothing

I'm bracing for the pain
And I am letting go
I'm using all my strength
To get out of this hole

I hit a wall

I thought that I would hurt myself
Oh, I was sure
Your words would leave me unconscious
And on the floor
I'd be lying cold, lifeless
But I hit a wall
I hit 'em all
Watch the fall
You're just another brick
And I'm a sledgehammer

You're just another brick
And I'm a sledgehammer

Yeah, I hit a wall
I prayed that I would make it through
Make it through
I can survive a life
That's without you
That's without you, yeah

And I will rise up
From the ashes now, the ashes now
Oh, the sparrow flies
With just the crumbs of loving still, yeah
I was bracing for the pain
And then I let it go
I gathered all my strength
And I found myself whole

I hit a wall
I thought that I would hurt myself
Oh, I was sure
Your words would leave me unconscious
And on the floor
I'd be lying cold, lifeless
But I hit a wall
I hit 'em all
Watch the fall

You're just another brick
And I'm a sledgehammer
You're just another brick
And I'm a sledgehammer
You're just another brick
And I'm a sledgehammer
You're just another brick
And I'm a sledgehammer
