The agony, monotony that makes up everyday
A corridor existence is your life
Moving in circles, no chance to get away
A handout on the edge of a knife

Hammer to the skull
Hammer to the skull

No reasons for this ritual, turn promises to lies
Mundane is a word made for you
Instinct and emotion slowly sterilised
Trodden down by those you look up to

Now you're filled with fear
Through the pounding hammer to the skull
All you can hear
Is the pounding hammer to the skull

Forgotten name to numbers is what you possess
Hostility you're forced to embrace
Speak no one hears, walking by your distress
You're shattered pride so out of place

Now you're filled with fear
Through the pounding hammer to the skull
All you can hear
Is the pounding hammer to the skull

No, no let me go
No, no let me go!

Time seems your enemy, misfortune you can't break
Dreams are held behind locked doors
Sleeping is no different from being wide awake
It's a nightmare you'll have for evermore

Now you're filled with fear
Through the pounding hammer to the skull
All you can hear
Is the pounding hammer to the skull

Now you're filled with fear
Through the pounding hammer to the skull
All you can hear
Is the pounding hammer to the skull
