Flesh Wound

It's four o' clock in the mornin' and the daylight's creepin' in

And I'm lyin' awake in bed

And outside my window, the rain's just pourin' down

And there's a pain inside my head, oh yeah

I looked hard into the mirror, took some water in my hands

And threw it on my face

But your memory won't fade away, I can see you everywhere

Around this empty space, oh no

This night's too long, I'm fadin' fast

I tell myself, this pain won't last

It's just a flesh wound

Missin' my heart but it still cuts deep

Nothin' but a flesh wound, yeah

It tore me apart and I still can't sleep, yeah

You know you really did it well

Now I'm lyin' on a bed of nails

But it's nothin' but a flesh wound, oh

Better pull myself together, I gotta hold my head up high

That's what I've got to do

No damage done, but deep inside my heart

Who am I tryin' to fool?

It's over now, it's all in the past

I tell myself, this pain won't last

It's just a flesh wound

Missin' my heart, but it still cuts deep

Nothin' but a flesh wound, oh

It tore me apart and I still can't sleep, no-no

I've got no choice, I must be strong

Can't lie here thinkin' about it all night long

It's nothin' but a flesh wound

It's just a flesh wound

Missin' my heart, but it still cuts deep

Nothin' but a flesh wound, oh

And it tore me apart but I still can't sleep

You know you really did it well

Now I'm lyin' on a bed of nails

It's just a flesh wound, whoa

I've got to be strong

It's just a flesh wound, right?

It tore me apart all night long

It's a flesh wound

Nothing but a flesh wound, whoa

It's cut me deep, yeah yeah-yeah
