Lyrics

[00:14.12] It's 4 am and im wide awake
[00:17.31] waiting for the thoughts to fade
[00:20.81] i flick a ring of all of my mistakes
[00:27.56] and as the light starts creeping in
[00:30.43] i slowly feel
[00:32.00] the day im missing
[00:33.74] but i wont even know where to begin
[00:40.42] do i push too hard
[00:42.67] i fall too fast
[00:43.85] a moment never seems to last
[00:47.11] and will i stop long enough to know
[00:53.04] cos everybody burns
[00:56.17] and when it starts to hurt
[00:59.60] i cry
[01:03.17] i feel it in my veins
[01:06.29] i just cant walk away' this time.
[01:09.93] your words circle in my head
[01:15.37] and weigh so heavy on my chest
[01:21.75] and im crushed by your expectation
[01:23.18] i only want to do some good
[01:29.62] to dumb to know if i could
[01:34.31] and i just wanna feel the days i'm in
[01:40.56] and do i go too far
[01:42.56] not far enough
[01:44.12] why cant i keep my big mouth shut and do
[01:48.31] and lead the life that we should
[01:53.18] and everybody burns
[01:56.93] and when it starts to hurt i cry
[02:03.62] i feel it in my veins
[02:06.62] i just cant walk away' this time.
[02:10.50] did i say too much again?
[02:17.05] im just a girl in a panic
[02:22.18] if i tell you my truth
[02:25.37] am i getting through?
[02:28.81] and it just seems i should confess
[02:32.43] who am i to pretend?
[02:35.43] this is more than i can carry
[02:40.56] cos everybody burns
[02:43.99] and when it starts to hurt
[02:47.24] i cry
[02:50.68] i hold my head up high
[02:53.99] i know ill be alright' this time.
[02:57.43] i feel it in my veins
[03:03.99] i just cant walk away this time.
[03:14.12]
[03:14.68] this time
[03:15.81]
[03:17.81] this time
[03:18.49]
[03:24.62] this time
[03:25.31]
[03:28.24] this time
[03:29.56]
[03:32.49] its 4 am and im wide awake
[03:35.24] waiting for my thoughts to fade
[03:39.43] and its time like these i see your face
