Woke Up This Morning Lyrics

I paid my last respects this mornin' on an early grave
Already said goodbye, nothin left to say
A tiny church a tiny town and not a tear was spent
Not how I wanted it, I'm hating all of this

Well I'm hating, all of this
I'm hating, all of this
All of this, all of this
Now I know why, I hide my love from you somedays
No I don't mind keeping this bottled inside me
You came along, and tore this world out around me
Looks like you found me
Now I know why
I felt like shit when I woke up this morning

I've been a loser all my life, I'm not about to change
If you don't like, there's the door, nobody made you stay
There ain't a woman on the planet who can deal with it
Just how I wanted it, I'm hating all of this

Well I'm hating, all of this
I'm hating, all of this
All of this, all of this
Now I know why, I hide my love from you somedays
No I don't mind keeping this bottled inside me
You came along, and tore this world out around me
Looks like you found me
Now I know why
I felt like shit when I woke up this morning

All of this, All of this
Now I know why, I hide my love from you somedays
No I don't mind keeping this bottled inside me
You came along, and tore this world out around me
Looks like you found me
Now I know why
I felt like shit when I woke up this morning

I don't know about anyone else, but does this song remind you of September 11? As some of you hardcore Nickelback fans may know, their CD came out on that day. I bought it that day, brought it home and listened to it nonstop as I did my homework. Out of all the songs on the CD, I think the general mood 'Woke Up This Morning' created, best represented the anguish of that day. For me, it will always symbolize Terrible Tuesday.

@tinafeygirl that's what this song also remind me of. Really sad.

This guy sounds REAL depressed about himself...

To me it means that no matter who comes along that he'll never have any faith in himself. It's really sad.

it kinda reminds me of a close friend of mine that committed suicide a few months ago.... depressing, but no matter how hard i try i still listen to it all the time

I luv Nickelback, but I havta say, I think Chad may have been suicidal.

nickelbacks awesome i love this song even though its a bit depressing...

Cover art for Woke Up This Morning lyrics by Nickelback

It seems to be about someone who is in a realtionship w/ someone and not wanting to let them in and be happy w/ themselves

Cover art for Woke Up This Morning lyrics by Nickelback

To me, it's about someone who has always been hiding their feelings and anger and is basically all alone in the world. Always very depressed, but they meet someone who really tries to see who they really are. (Did that make sense?)

I don't really seee this song as suicidal, because I can kind of relate to it. It sounds like he lost someone close to him and it hurts him everyday, but no one can understand his pain, not even those closest to him. It's lonely, but sometimes a person can seek solitute, without wanting to kill themselves.

I'm a very big Nickelback fan, & this song is probably one of my favorites. I really like this song even though it is kinda depressing when you really sit & listen to it. "I paid my last respects this morning on an early grave/already said goodbye, nothing left to say". To me, that means that he's burying is former self w/ no goodbye's or regrets, but not really knowing where he's going next or how he's gonna be. Maybe it doesn't mean that, but that's how it fits into my life.
