[Verse 1]
EmMmm, wide awake and he Dshakes in a panic
EmNever woke up alone Dever before
EmHad his woman long as Dhe can remember
EmTries to forget, Dbut he can't, he can't
EmOut of bed and he Ddreams in the shower
EmShe's standing naked and aDpologizing
EmReaches for her 'till his Dmind becomes blood hot
EmWoken up to be Dburned, burned, again
[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
EmOn the streets he's Dwalkin', wounded
EmDoesn't smile for the Dchild at play
EmThoughts of suicide and Dalleviation
EmAnything to get his Dheart off of the coals
EmDoes he fly away or Djust talk about it
EmLike a seagull born to Dcry in the wind
EmAll experiences Dlead to a young girl
EmAll alone you will meet the Done who lies in wait
[Chorus]
