I woke up this morning on the wrong side of the bed
The hazy sunrise wraps a veil around my head
I can't get motivated, the swimming thoughts are drowning in my head
And if by some coincidence I do just what they said

   And the morning blue is warning you
   This avalanche is storming through
   In the dawn of the morning blue
   Just take me away
 
The fire of failed reason, the rain of every season
The patriotic treason, the ringing of the bells
The avalanche of sorrow, the soul afraid to borrow
There is no day tomorrow, keep living for today and let me

   [chorus]

    Just set me free and I will be
    Afraid enough to find it
    Take my hand or take a stand
    And I would never mind it
    Sit and stare or say a prayer
    For all you left behind
    Call on me, just never be
    The last one in the line

I woke up this morning on the wrong side of the bed
I should have stayed in bed and slept all day instead
There ain't no profit in this day that lies ahead
These blurry images still echo in my head

   [chorus]
