*from 'Seven' (1981)*


Intro:

    

Verse 1:

     
When I get home, it's late at night,
    
I'm black and bloody from my life.
  
I haven't time to clean my hands;
                                          
 Cuts will only sting me, through my dreams.

Verse 2:

     
It's well past midnight as I lie,

 In a semi-conscious state.
  
I dream of people fighting me,
                             
 Without any reason I can see.

Chorus 1:

               
 In the morning, I awake;
                  
My arms my legs, my body aches.
                 
The sky outside is wet and grey;

                  
 So begins a-nother weary  day.
                       
 So begins a-nother weary day.

Verse 3:


 After eating I go out,

 People passing by me shout.
  
I can't stand this agony;
                              
 Why don't they talk to me?

Bridge 1:

            
 In the park I have to rest,
              
I lie down and I do my best.
                 
The rain is falling on my face;
                                   
I wish I could sink with-out a trace.

Chorus 2:

               
 In the morning, I awake;
                  
My arms my legs, my body aches.
                 
The sky outside is wet and grey;

                  
 So begins a-nother weary  day.
                       
 So begins a-nother weary day.
