5am

“5am” (March 1, 2010)

 

5am and I cannot sleep

I'm thinking about you and me

Because I can see you not with me

 

5am and I cannot sleep

I'm thinking about you and me

coming together, you'll see

 

Cause you're so sweet

When you're talking to me

Never thought we'd exist

As shadows fading in the mist

 

Looking back in misery

Your love so clear, I should've seen

But you're with him not my absurdity

 

You were the one I ran to when I was down

Knew every way to turn my head around

Forbidden treasures, Forbidden fruit

Forgotten memories, Forsaken youth

 

10pm and I'm still awake

mind tremors lie like Earthquakes

Exposing every fault line we faked

 

We played a game of fate

As of late, I really don't think

You're worth the high stakes

 

Closets filled with mistakes

Strawmen turned hollow bones

In the burial tomb of her womb.
