There's a hole in the roof
And the dust that's pouring through
Means you want to build
The world again from scratch

'Cause nothing moved means nothing found
But there's a sadness in the sound
As the walls crack
And the scenes change so fast

If you had a hammer
You would knock the whole thing down
But tell me how you'll build again
With what is left of all you've spent?

Beware the time in your life
When you feel you have to fight
And you know your words
No longer mean enough

There's not a whisper to be found
As you're marching to this sound
Of the wheels turn
And the walls tumble down

If you had a hammer
You could knock this whole thing down
But tell me, will you build again
When all is lost and all is spent?

Knock things down to start again
So you tear it up to find escape
You'd do anything just to bring this down
Call it a sinking ship, you set the sun

You want a way out, you're begging for it
There's no chance of your escape
You'd buy your way out, sell everything
There's nothing left of all we've built

If you had a hammer
You would knock the whole thing down
But tell me, how you'll build again
When all is lost and all is spent?

Oh, if you had a dollar
You would hide yourself away
But in your silence find some sense
That there is no one else to blame

I found you out, you set the sun
Falling far
I found you out, you set the sun
There's no way out

I found you out and inside the sun
I found you out, I found you out
