Woke Up Hurting

Daybreak comes with the devil's hum
 A carcass starts to breathe
 Wakes one more time to try and find
 a place to count its teeth
 And scrub the cuts from yesterday's
 Hot scuffle in the street
 Show me the door
 I need somewhere to go
 Daylight
 woke up hurting
 with tarmac to my side
 I woke up with dirty knees
 not for the first time
 I woke up hurting
 Though I can't quite say why
 I woke up hurting
 Woke up hurting
 ♪
 Slug through the day, sneak between
 the houses I have made
 And run sacred rivers up my sleeve
 Pills by mouth with lemonade
 As the hours slow down, they all clock out
 of the cracked up daily grind
 I'm in a back back street, coming down
 I wait for the beam of light
 Show me the door
 I need somewhere to go
 Midnight
 woke up hurting
 with tarmac to my side
 I woke up with dirty knees
 not for the first time
 I woke up hurting
 Though I can't quite say why
 I woke up hurting
 Woke up hurting
 If all these southern tales are true
 we should pray for abduction, pray it comes soon
 If all these southern tales are true
 plan for Heaven though Hell will do
