Hammer In My Heart
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There's a hammer in my heart
Pounding out your name
There's a hammer in my heart
Here it comes again
I hear a certain sound
And it just won't go away
It sends a message out
What's it gonna be today?
It wakes me up at dawn
And as the day goes on
I try to turn it off but the beat goes on
It never lets me rest
I can't get a minute's peace
I lay awake in bed
Wondering will it ever cease?
It's like a top ten song
I hear it all day long
I try to turn it off but the beat goes on
