Flesh Wound
It's four o' clock in the mornin' and the daylight's creepin' inI'm lyin' awake in bedOutside my window the rain's just pourin' downAnd there's a pain inside my head
I looked hard into the mirror, took some water in my handsAnd threw it on my faceBut your memory won't fade away, I can see you everywhereAround this empty space
This night's too long, I'm fadin' fastI tell myself, this pain won't last
It's just a flesh woundMissin' my heart but it still cuts deepNothin' but a flesh woundIt tore me apart and I still can't sleepYou know you really did it wellNow I'm lyin' on a bed of nailsBut it's nothin' but a flesh wound
Better pull myself together, gotta hold my head up highthat's what I;ve got to doNo damage done, but deep inside my heartWho am I tryin' to fool
It's over now, all in the pastI tell myself, this pain won't last
It's just a flesh woundMissin, my heart, but it still cuts deepNothin' but a flesh woundIt tore me apart and I still can't sleepI've got no choice, I must be strongCan't lie here thinkin' about it all night longIt's nothin' but a flesh wound[repeat chorus....]
