verse 1
A F Dm/F
I hit a wall, I never felt so low, so low
A F Dm/F
Like a waterfall, my tears dropped to the floor, the floor
A F Dm/F
They left a swimming pool of salted crimes, crimes
A F
Oh, what could I do to change your mind?
n.c.
Nothing
Pre-Chorus 1
A F Dm/F
I'm bracing for the pain and I am letting go
A F Dm/F
I'm using all my strength to get out of this hole
A F Dm/F
I hit a wall, I thought that I would hurt myself
A F Dm/F
Oh I was sure, your words would leave me unconscious
A F Dm/F
And on the floor I'd be lying cold, lifeless
A F Dm/F
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

And I will rise up from the ashes now, the ashes now
A F Dm/F
Oh, the sparrow flies with just the crumbs of loving's failure, yeah

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
