The Second Hand Hammer - Airborne Anger

Verse 1 THREE! TWO! FUCK — it’s already moving Red hand shaking like it’s gonna snap the glass Every tick SLAMS straight into the skull No buildup, no warning, just BRUTE METAL falling fast I’m choking on the half-second before the next one lands Chest caving in, ribs cracking under the countdown’s hands You think you’ve got time? You’ve got NOTHING — it’s already gone Chorus THE SECOND HAND HAMMER SMASHES DOWN! DOWN! DOWN! Right now — RIGHT FUCKING NOW! No pause, no mercy, no soft little “soon” Just the iron face of time caving in your room TICK — you’re bleeding TICK — you’re breaking TICK — you’re already too late There’s only seconds left And they’re COMING FOR YOUR FUCKING THROAT Verse 2 I’m staring at the clock like it’s a loaded gun Sweat burning eyes, pulse jackhammering in my tongue Every plan I had is just noise it’s gonna crush Every “one more day” turns to dust under one more — CRACK! It doesn’t whisper. It doesn’t wait. It just HITS. And the next one’s already rising back to swing again Chorus THE SECOND HAND HAMMER SMASHES DOWN! DOWN! DOWN! No escape hatch, no last-minute crown It’s not poetic — it’s a fucking sledge Crushing maybe’s into permanent edge TICK — you’re smaller TICK — you’re done TICK — scream all you want, it’s already won Seconds left? Bitch, they’re GONE Bridge (screamed, almost unhinged) I BEGGED it once — offered everything — teeth, blood, years, soul, whatever it wanted It didn’t even slow down Just kept climbing Smooth. Cold. Certain. Like it enjoys watching me realize there’s never gonna be enough time Final chorus (full volume, brutal, no pullback) THE SECOND HAND HAMMER SMASHES DOWN! DOWN! DOWN! No more almosts — no more sound Just the next hit And the next hit And the next hit Straight through the sternum Straight through the lies Straight through the “I still have time” in your eyes TICK — TICK — TICK — YOU’RE OUT OF SECONDS NOW (outro — shouted over a single massive final blow) ONE! ZERO! fuck...times up...
