Flesh Wound

[Verse 1]

It's four o' clock in the morning and the daylight's creeping in

I'm lying awake in bed

Outside my window the rain's just pouring 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 fading fast

I tell myself, this pain won't last

[Chorus]

It's just a flesh wound

Missing my heart but it still cuts deep

Nothing but a flesh wound

It tore me apart and I still can't sleep

You know you really did it well

Now I'm lying on a bed of nails

But it's nothing but a flesh wound

[Verse 2]

Better pull myself together, got to hold my head up high

That's what I’ve got to do

No damage done, but deep inside my heart

Who am I trying to fool

It's over now, all in the past

I tell myself, this pain won't last

[Chorus][x2]

It's just a flesh wound

Missing, my heart, but it still cuts deep

Nothing' 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 thinking about it all night long

It's nothing but a flesh wound
