Lyrics:
I broke my nose
Bled on my clothes
Woke up in the vicious sun
On the steps of my front door
I took one look
And turned around
I felt the death
I heard the black dog fainting ground
Burning daylight
Daylight daylight
Daylight ya
Shut up mind
Shut up soul
Let me burn myself a hole
Burning daylight
Daylight daylight
Daylight ya
Shut up body
I’m on a roll
Let me burn myself a hole
I close my eyes
On highways sides
In rooms of smoke and yellow light
Where handsome men are brutalized
Where no one lives
And no one dies
We just wait and look for ways
To disappear behind our eyes
Ya
Another honest man gets burned alive
Burning daylight
Daylight daylight
Daylight ya
Shut up mind
Shut up soul
Let me burn myself a hole
Burning daylight
Daylight daylight
Daylight ya
Shut up man
I’m on a roll
Let me burn myself a hole
I took one look
And turned around
I felt the death
I heard the black dog gaining ground
Burning daylight
Burning daylight
Daylight daylight
Daylight ya
Shut up mind
Shut up soul
Let me burn myself a hole
Burning daylight
Daylight daylight
Daylight ya
Shut up body
I’m on a roll
Let me burn myself a hole
