flesh wound

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

i'm lyin' awake in bed

outside my window the rain's just pourin' down

and there's a pain inside my head

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

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

it tore me apart and i still can't sleep

you know you really did it well

now i'm lyin' on a bed of nails

but it's nothin' but a flesh wound

better pull myself together

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

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

it tore me apart and i still can't sleep

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
