4 o’Clock
Never let me sleep
I close my eyes and pray
For the garish light of day
Like a frightened child I run
From the sleep that never comes
4 o’Clock
4 o’Clock
Out of bed I creep
To climb this tower of shame
But the hour’s still the same
Only madness knows my name
At 4 o’Clock
4 o’Clock
4 o’Clock
Never let me sleep
I close my eyes and pray
For the garish light of day
Like a frightened child I run
From the sleep that never comes
4 o’Clock
4 o’Clock
Out of bed I creep
To climb this tower of shame
But the hour’s still the same
Only madness knows my name
At 4 o’Clock
Why can we never go back to bed?
Whose is the voice ringing in my head?
Where is the sense in these desperate dreams?
Why should I wake when I’m half past dead?
Sure as the clock keeps its steady chime
Weak as I walk to its steady rhyme
Ticking away from the ones we love
So many girls, so little time
Why can we never go back to bed?
Whose is the voice ringing in my head?
Where is the sense in these desperate dreams?
Why should I wake when I’m half past dead?
4 o’Clock
4 o’Clock
Never let me sleep
I close my eyes and pray
For the garish light of day
Like a frightened child I run
From the sleep that never comes
4 o’Clock
4 o’Clock
Out of bed I creep
To climb this tower of shame
But the hour’s still the same
Only slumber never came
Only madness knows my name
At 4 o’Clock
Why can we never go back to bed?
Whose is the voice ringing in my head?
Where is the sense in these desperate dreams?
Why should I wake when I’m half past dead?
Sure as the clock keeps its steady chime
Weak as I walk to its steady rhyme
Ticking away from the ones we love
So many girls, so little time
Why can we never go back to bed?
Will I ever see thee wed
I will marry at thy will sire
At thy will
A thousand years gone by
Too late to wonder why
I’m here alone
If in my darkest hour
She rose that fell a flower
I should have known
Rose Rose Rose Red
Will I ever see thee wed
Only if you can capture me
Chorus:
Tell me no more stories
And I’ll tell you no lies
No one wants to hurt me
But everybody tries
And if you think that I’ve been waiting
For my planets to align
It’s time you go on
Get your things, get up, get out
I’m doing fine, yeah yeah
Someday these walls will speak
The floors beneath you creak
To call my name
Here in my web of dreams
My whispers turn to screams
And place the blame
Rose Rose Rose Red
Will I ever see thee wed
Only if you discover me
Chorus
For this freedom
I have given all I had
For this darkness
I gave my light
For this wisdom
I have lost my innocence
Take my petals
And cover me with the night
Chorus
