no hammer to hold

i built a house

upon the hill

all my love's inside

i run around

one day you will

come down

in a slide

everything looks better in my dream

nine pounds' heavier than it seems

so take me back minnesota in the snow

i turn my back and try to make it home

clearly i've

no hammer to hold

you keep a light

and burn both ends

i live inside my mind

and you were right

i was wrong again

what will they say when i die

everything looks better in my head

nine pounds' heavier than they said

so take me back to minnesota in the snow

i turn my back and try to make it home

clearly i've

no hammer to hold

so watch my back with mercy as i go

cause i'm attacked

by this burning afterglow

i built a house

upon a hill

all my love's inside
