Daybreak comes with the devil's hum
A carcass starts to breathe
Wakes one more time to try and find
a place to count its teeth
And scrub the cuts from yesterday's
Hot scuffle in the street
Show me the door
I need somewhere to go
Daylight
woke up hurting
with tarmac to my side
I woke up with dirty knees
not for the first time
I woke up hurting
Though I can't quite say why
I woke up hurting
Woke up hurting
Slug through the day, sneak between
the houses I have made
And run sacred rivers up my sleeve
Pills by mouth with lemonade
As the hours slow down, they all clock out
of the cracked up daily grind
I'm in a back back street, coming down
I wait for the beam of light
Show me the door
I need somewhere to go
Midnight
woke up hurting
with tarmac to my side
I woke up with dirty knees
not for the first time
I woke up hurting
Though I can't quite say why
I woke up hurting
Woke up hurting
If all these southern tales are true
we should pray for abduction, pray it comes soon
If all these southern tales are true
plan for Heaven though Hell will do

Frightened Rabbit è un gruppo indie rock scozzese formatosi nel 2003 da Scott Hutchison (voce, chitarra), Billy Kennedy (chitarra) e Grant Hutchison (batteria). Inizialmente progetto solista di Scott, il nome Frightened Rabbit deriva dal titolo di una canzone scritta durante gli studi all'università. Le prime registrazioni erano demo realizzate con un Tascam 4-track, caratterizzate da un suono lo-fi ma già ricco di talento e personalità. Nel corso degli anni, la formazione si è consolidata in trio e il sound ha maturato un approccio più pop, pur mantenendo l'intensità emotiva tipica dell'indie rock. Tra i brani rappresentativi: "The Modern Leper", "Swim Until You Can't See Land" e "My Backwards Walk". L'album di debutto, "Sing the Greener Grass", risale al 2006, seguito da altri lavori apprezzati dalla critica come "Midnight Organ Fight" (2008) e "The Winter of Mixed Drinks" (2010). La band ha collaborato con artisti come The National e Belle and Sebastian. Nel 2016, il frontman Scott Hutchison è tragicamente scomparso, lasciando un vuoto nel panorama musicale indie.
