It's 5 a.m., my time again I've soaken up the moon, can't sleep It's 5 a.m., my time again I'm calling and you know it's me
I'm pushing myself further I'm just tryin' to feel my heartbeat beat (beat) I wrap my hands around your neck You love it when I always squeeze
It's 5 a.m., I'm high again And you can see that I'm in pain I've fallen into emptiness I want you 'cause we're both insane
I'm staring into the abyss I'm looking at myself again I'm dozing off to R.E.M. I'm tryin' not to lose my faith
And I love it when you watch me sleep You spin me 'round so I can breathe It's only safe for you and me I know you won't let me OD
And if I finally die in peace Just wrap my body in these sheets And pour out the gasoline It don't mean much to me
It's 5 a.m., I'm nihilist I know there's nothing after this (after this) Obsessing over aftermaths Apocalypse and hopelessness (hopelessness)
The only thing I understand Is zero-sum of tenderness (tenderness) Oh, baby, please just hold me close Make me believe there's more to live
Around, around, around, around we go In this game called life, we are not free
And I love it when you watch me sleep You spin me 'round so I can breathe It's only safe for you and me (don't let me go) I know you won't let me OD (don't you let me go)
And if I finally die in peace (oh yeah) Just wrap my body in the sheets And pour out the gasoline It don't mean much to me
