[Verse] I woke up in the dark with my face against the floor The fire was still burning my lungs were getting sore Another child frozen in November, downtown Richmond Poverty was too costly kerosene had retention [Verse] I woke up in the dark with my face dripping wet That polyester bargain was the best I would get It's too hot to have to travel, another handout You didn't know that's what I was thinking about [Pre-Chorus] I woke up today and tomorrow but went through yesterday Rabbits feet and four leaf clovers weren't enough for me Riding the biggest wave of how did that not kill me I woke up today and tomorrow passing through yesterday [Verse] I woke up in the dark with my face under the bed Times were different and I'm blessed to not be dead Traveling hundreds of miles up under the seat Someone had a hold on us like you wouldn't believe [Verse] I woke up in the light a turbulent sky up above The children prayed and the parents showed love We were skipped over by the forces of nature Now we miss her, the Cheeriest teacher [Pre-Chorus] I woke up today and tomorrow but went through yesterday Rabbits feet and four leaf clovers weren't enough for me Riding the biggest wave of how did that not kill me I woke up today and tomorrow passing through yesterday [Verse] I woke up today on the side of the road Windows down and still not freezing cold Reaching for my father trying to get home Leaving a lover traveling the unknown [Verse] I woke up today under florescent lights Experiencing time-dilation no warning tonight Then I watch myself go down that hall After all these years it's a wonder I can recall [Pre-Chorus] I woke up today and tomorrow but went through yesterday Rabbits feet and four leaf clovers weren't enough for me Riding the biggest wave of how did that not kill me I woke up today and tomorrow passing through yesterday [Final-Chorus] I woke up today and tomorrow but went through yesterday Rabbits feet and four leaf clovers weren't enough for me Riding the biggest wave of how did that not kill me I woke up today and tomorrow passing through yesterday
