I was raised by the fist and hammer The weight of memory I awoke to a fiery clamor You lying next to me Something came over me, Something so true So I'll stay here and lie with you I'm a lot like a broken bird Who lost his will to sing I'm afraid of the joy of flight As much as anything Something came over me Walked through that door But I'll just lay here on the kitchen floor I was raised by the fist and hammer The weight of memory I awoke to a fiery planet You standing over me But I'll just stay here and wait for you
