[Intro] [Verse 1] In the morning I wake up, can't decide what I'll take up Beneath rusty waters Scrub my face and look in the mirror What stares back is half man, and half machine. I'm not a mystery. Even I don't know what I mean. Full of indecision, I strap on my armor. Yeah. [Verse 2] Step outside. Take a breath. Nothing more. Nothing less. With each step forward, I move farther away She's my shelter. The one who gets me through the day But I answer first to one, the one who offers to pay Yeah. It could be the last time I see her, but I walk on To slave for money, to the edge of dawn. [Chorus] Hard days, and harder nights In all this time, I've fought a thousand fights What is my life worth, when I can't decide Between my chyen, or a loving wife? [Verse 3] We argue well into the night. Will I stay? Will I fight? But the chyen is calling, and I'm too weak to ignore She's done she says, even as I close the door. [Bridge] [Verse 4] Punching in the code. No familiar green. There's only Red, if you know what I mean. The decision was made, but it wasn't me. Blinded by chyen, I couldn't see What was right in front of me This whole time, I thought I was fighting hard But my subconscious intent, it turns out, Was not to keep, but to discard. [Chorus] Hard days, and harder nights In all this time, I've fought a thousand fights What is my life worth, when I can't decide Between my chyen, or a loving wife? [Long Instrumental Outro]
