It's 4 A.M, and I'm wide awake Waiting for my thoughts to fade And a flickering of all of my mistakes And as the light starts creeping in I slowly feel the day I'm missing But I wouldn't even know where to begin I knew I'd push too hard, or fall too fast The moment never seems to last And will I stop for long enough to know That everybody burns And when it starts to hurt I cry I feel it in my veins I just can't walk away This time Your words circle in my head And weigh so heavy on my chest And I'm crushed by your expectation I only wanna do some good Too dumb to know if I could And I just wanna feel the day's I'm in I knew I'd push too hard, not hard enough Why can't I keep my big mouth shut And do we lead the life that we should? Cause everybody burns And when it starts to hurt I cry I feel it in my veins I just can't walk away This time And did I say too much again I'm just a girl in a panic And if I tell you my truth, what am I getting through? And it just seems I should confess And who am I to pretend? And this is more than I can carry Cause everybody burns And when it starts to hurt I cry I feel it in my veins I just cant walk away This time I hold my head up high I know I'll be alright this time ah, ah, ah ah, ah, ah Its 4 AM and I'm wide awake Waiting for my thoughts to fade And its times like these I see your face
