Mother's Hammer 歌词

My mother warned me love would knock me out She liked it to a hammer on the soul When I asked her why, with a smile in her eye She said: When you know, you know When I was seventeen I went to rome I searched the ruins and the catacombs The beauty took my breath, but I've got to admit Not my mother's hammer I loved a man who never loved himself I left him, then I drank myself to hell I woke up with a stranger in a mansion by the sea Not my mother's hammer Years later, I stood up and dusted off It took a while to nurse me back to health Harnessing my power, a king in her new tower Still not my mother's hammer My friend decided she would take her life She spent her days here suffering in pain Her daughters left alone, they etched her name in stone Losing faith in mother's hammer The day she died you came to my front door Bearing all the comforts I adore You sat with me in bed, and that's the moment when I first felt mother's hammer I felt it echo through my bloody bones I felt it flood the spaces in between I felt you take my jaw, and kiss my lips so raw I felt my mother's hammer hitting me My mother warned me love would knock me out She liked it to a hammer on the soul The children in me fight, goddamn she's always right I found my mother's hammer
