(M. Jones / J. Edwards / T. Thomas)



It's four o'clock in the mornin'

The daylight's creepin' in

'N' I'm lyin' awake in bed



'N' outside my window

The rain's just pourin' down

'N' there's a pain inside my head, oh yeah



I looked hard into the mirror

Took some water in my hands

Threw it on my face



But your memory won't fade away

I see you everywhere

Around this empty space, oh no



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 still cuts deep

Nothin' but a flesh wound, yeah-eh-eh

Tore me apart 'n' I still can't sleep, yeah

You know you really did it well

Now I'm lyin' on a bed of nails

But it's nothin' but a flesh wound, woah-oh-oh



Better pull myself together

I 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, it's all in the past

I tell myself, this pain won't last



It's just a flesh wound

Missin' my heart but still cuts deep

Nothin' but a flesh wound, whoah

Tore me apart 'n' I still can't sleep, no, no

I've got no choice, I must be strong

Can't lie here thinkin' 'bout it all night long

It's nothin' but a flesh wound



It's just a flesh wound

Missin' my heart but still cuts deep

Nothin' but a flesh wound, woah

And it tore me apart, but I still can't sleep

You know you really did it well

Now I'm lyin' on a bed of nails

It's just a flesh wound, woah

I've got to be strong

It's just a flesh wound, babe

It tore me apart, all night long

It's a flesh wound

Nothing but a flesh wound, woah-oh-oh

'N' it's cuttin' me deep, yeah-eah-eh-eh, yeah-eah
