Daybreak comes with a 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 streets
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 days, sneak between The houses I have made And run sacred rivers up my sleeve Pills by mouth with lemonade And as the Earth slowed down They all clock out of the crack of daily grind I'm in a back backstreet coming down I went for a beam of light
Show me the door, I need somewhere to go
Midnight, woke up hurting The 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 or 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
