I'll begin by talking to him

Please can't you understand

I need you to be here

Because I lost all my friends

They've been wearing me thin

I'm trapped and nothing ever changes

Nothing ever changes

Don't you change

It's 4am

And we're not broken

Barely hanging onto strings

That hold my body in place

We'll play our games

And after all the exchange

I'll raise my fists

Why can't you understand?

I don't need what we love most

The pain is the best

The pain is what feeds

The need for progress

You're not like anything else

And that's why I got to you

That's why I come to you

It's 4am

And we're not broken

Barely hanging onto strings

That hold my body in place

We'll play our games

And after all of the exchange

I will raise my fists to all that you gave

So give me balance

Give me something

Give me the pills

Well the love is gone

Our love is gone

Well the love is gone

I'm hoping and praying

Our push and shove

That you're not changing

The passage of the ones you love

It's 4am

And we're not broken

Barely hanging onto strings

That hold my body in place

We'll play our games

And after all of the exchange

I will raise my fists to all that you gave
