Hey you,
Hey sledgehammer, 

I lied to you as much as you lied to me
What a fucking stunner couple
I told you to come over anytime
Window always open
I promised that you came first, even if it put me last

It’s because just being in the same room with you is a relief
Knowing I will get to be in the same room with you
That gets me through the hours
Like my phone vibrating, you telling me 143, 143, 143
I’d be like, yeah, me too. Be there soon

Never too early, never too late
Always have time for you
Fucking PIC every day
We could take on the world
You and me, sledgehammer
Best damn sledgehammer on the planet
Bash the shit out of my heart in the best way

Remember when we’d wait, like really wait?
Wait until there was truly nothing guarding me from you?
That was our moment
Long day behind us, fire ahead
There you’d be, clear as day, spilling onto the kitchen counter
You tasted like the devil and the stars, burning like nothing else can
My little sledgehammer
This was our game

Remember when I’d slip you to the back of the closet so he wouldn’t know you were there?
We’d rush like little kids, racing to beat him to the front door
Secrets, love, that is what we kept
You were freedom, you were just for me
Course I’d find you all over the house, but I kept some of you always for myself
Somewhere he’d never look

Sledgehammer, I have to let you go
Right along with him
It’s not because I don’t love you
Because I always will

Really, I miss you, I want you to be climbing in through my window right now
Wish you could hit me up, tell me it’s ok, come back
I don’t know why we can’t just be cool
We’ve known each other forever
Hate that it has to be all or nothing
But if I don’t delete your number, I’ll call you
If you’re within reach, I’ll try to get you back
So, just go then
Block me otherwise I’ll be at your window

Miss you
Miss you, sledgehammer

We both know this is a long time coming
I’ll find you here when I write, I’ll see you along with every other heartbreaker I’ve known
No more secrets
No more lies
This isn’t a real romance
It’s always been an affair

I’ll miss you, sledgehammer
But now I need to be the one throwing the punches
I’m gonna get so strong
Gonna have to lock all the windows
If you do show up, watch for my gloves

Still love you
But only as much as you love me
