4:07 in the a.m.
Got to escape
The rain
Living with a world of pain

Questioning whether I’ve gone insane
Put a pistol to my brain
Cocked the trigger
Such a useless game

4:07 in the a.m.
Got to escape the pain

Ringing bells inside my head
Alarm set to go
Two more hours
Before the show

Maybe that’s just the way it goes
Born, live, die
A vicious cycle
Always the question “why”

Live, love life
Live free of all the strife
Drama and an apple core
Can barely handle anymore

The beat, music soothes the beast
Running through my veins
No question now, I’ve gone insane

Heartbeats, beating drum
Trying hard to overcome
Deception in my eyes
Heartbeats and a beating drum

Heartbeats and a beating drum
