Woke Up Hurting Lyrics

Daybreak comes with the devil's hum
A carcass starts to breathe
And wakes one more time to try and find
A place to count its' teeth
And scrub the cuts from yesterday's
Hot scuffle on 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
And as the hours flow down
They all clock out of the crack of daily grind
I'm in a back back street
Coming down
I went for a 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
And if all these southern tales are true
We should pray for abduction
Pray it comes soon
And if all these southern tales are true
Plan for heaven though hell will do
And if all these southern tales are true
Pray for abduction
Pray it comes soon
And if all these southern tales are true
Plan for heaven though hell will do
