From the recording Americana Motel
Lyrics
IT WAS A MISERABLE FLIGHT AND MY HEAD DON’T FEEL RIGHT
IT’S BEEN A LONG, LONG, LONG, LONG DAY
IT’S FREEZING OUTSIDE AND THIS BED DON’T FEEL RIGHT
AND THE BLACK DOG WON’T GIVE WAY
I’M FEELING BAD ABOUT FEELING SO BAD
SPIRALING DOWN TO A CRASH
DANCED WITH DESIRE AND PLAYED WITH THE FIRE
I FOUND MYSELF SIFTING THRU ASH
IT’S BEEN A HARD LIFE TO BUILD I WANNA BLAME MY TOOLS
WHEN IT ALL FALLS DOWN ON ME
ONE LESS VICTIMLESS CRIME, ONE MORE DAY AT A TIME
IF I CAN GET MYSELF TO SLEEP
TOMORROW STARTS IN THE DARK JUST LIKE YESTERDAY
THE PROMISE OF DAWN SEEMS SO FAR AWAY
WHEN HOPE IS A THING WITHOUT ANY WINGS
LET THE DEMONS OF THE NIGHT
DISAPPEAR IN MORNING LIGHT
TOMORROW STARTS IN THE DARK
THERE’S A JEKYLL INSIDE WHO JUST BARELY SURVIVES
AND A HYDE I CAN’T SEEM TO ERASE
AND A FAILURE OF WILL THAT KEEPS SENDNG THE BILL
FOR THE STORY YOU SEE ON MY FACE
I HAVE BEEN TRIED DON’T KNOW HOW I’LL SURVIVE
ANOTHER YEAR JUST LIKE THE LAST
ASH IS TO ASH AS DUST IS TO DUST
TOMMOROW CAN’T GET HERE TOO FAST
TOMORROW STARTS IN THE DARK JUST LIKE YESTERDAY
THOUGH THE PROMISE OF DAWN SEEMS SO FAR AWAY
WHEN THE LONG NIGHT IS DONE THERE WIILL BE A NEW SUN
LET THE DEMONS OF THE NIGHT
DISAPPER IN MORNING LIGHT
TOMORROW STARTS IN THE DARK
