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 [repeat chorus....]
