Geoff Baker - Jackhammer lyrics

Six a.m. stumbled through the freeze and into bed Caught me sleeping with a past I thought I'd left for dead Snowed me underneath a continent, a powder keg That lit the sun a winter red Felt the wind lick like a whisper over hands and hair Felt the cold drop like a ball and hit the bottom stair Will you give me eyes that see the things that no one knows are there If I promise not to stare? I caught myself before I dropped the day, and lost the page Lost everything in memories that'd never been I looked for someplace I could lay away, stay away Someplace warm where when you die you live again In a click I heard the breath of ice and locked the door Felt the rush and hit the deck and took a new shape on the floor Rolled my soul into a ball with fear inside the core Someone somewhere nevermore Pieces of archangel floating on the morning air Caught me looking, man, you couldn't understand if you weren't there I got eyes and started seeing things you don't see anywhere And you know I had to stare I caught myself before I dropped the day, and lost the page Lost everything to memories that'd never been I looked for someplace I could lay away, stay away Someplace warm where when you die you live again Christ, it left me just as quick as it had come to me Swung over me in darkness like a hammer, like belief Give me eyes so I can see the things that no one else can see I want to see what you can see I want to see what you can see
