Here we stand or here we fall, History won't care at all
Make the bed light the light, Lady Mercy won't be home tonight, yeah
You don't waste no time at all
Don't hear the bell but you answer the call
It comes to you as to us all
We're just waiting for the hammer to fall
Oh every night and every day, A little piece of you is falling away
But lift your face the Western Way, Build your muscles as your body decays, yeah
Toe your line and play their game, yeah
Let the anesthetic cover it all
Till one day they call your name
You know it's time for the hammer to fall
Rich or poor or famous, For your truth it's all the same (oh no, oh no)
Lock your door the rain is pouring through your window pane (oh no)
Baby now your struggle's all in vain
For we who grew up tall and proud, In the shadow of the mushroom cloud
Convinced our voices can't be heard, We just wanna scream it louder, and louder, louder
What the hell we fighting for?
Just surrender and it won't hurt at all
You just got time to say your prayers
While your waiting for the hammer to, hammer to fall
It's gonna fall
Hammer..you know..hammer to fall
Waiting for the hammer to fall, now baby
While you're waiting for the hammer to fall
Give it to me one more time!
