4 AM
Bolt up wide awake,
Sweat runs down my face.
Panic in the dark,
I fall apart.
Every word you said,
Playing in my head.
Waves of disbelief,
Wash over me.
Oh it's 4AM,
And I'd be sound asleep
If these dreams would end,
Of you leaving me.
But I can't pretend,
And I can't believe,
I'm holding out and holding on,
Lying here alone at 4AM.
There's just no defense,
For things that make no sense.
Shake my head and try,
Still asking why.
With nothing left to say,
You just walked away.
Your dark and empty heart,
Tore me apart.
Oh it's 4AM,
And I'd be sound asleep
If these dreams would end,
Of you leaving me.
But I can't pretend,
And I can't believe,
I'm holding out and holding on,
Lying here alone at 4AM.
Of all the things I've lost,
The thing that I miss most,
Is the hope that lit my way,
The light you took away.
Oh it's 4AM,
And I'd be sound asleep
If these dreams would end,
Of you leaving me.
But I can't pretend,
And I can't believe,
I'm holding out and holding on,
Have no idea where I belong.
Holding out and holding on,
Lying here alone,
At 4AM.
