Rihanna
Sledgehammer Lyrics

I hit a wall,
I never felt so low,
so low

Like a waterfall,
my tears dropped to the floor,
the floor

They left
a swimming pool
of salted crimes,
crimes

Oh,
what could I do
to change your mind?
Nothing

I’m bracing for the pain
and I am letting go
I’m using all my strength
to get out of this hole

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

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

Yeah, I hit a wall,
I prayed that I would make it through,
make it through

I can’t survive
a life that’s without you,
that’s without you, yeah

And I will rise
up from the ashes now,
the ashes now

Oh, the sparrow flies
with just the crumbs
of loving spilled, yeah

I was bracing for the pain
and then I let it go
I gathered all my strength
and I found myself whole

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

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

You’re just another brick
and I’m a sledgehammer
You’re just another brick
and I’m a sledgehammer
