It’s 4 in the morning I’m starting to panic,

Feeling the weight of last nights emphatic situations,

Alone in a car park face down on the asphalt

If you could have seen me, you would believe me.

Remember the winters we got to wear sweaters,

Play in the snowflakes, ride bikes using no brakes,

It felt like the first time!

I need time to rest my head against my knees.

You’re not alone don’t break your back to find me,

I need more than this to make me change my mind.

You’re not alone, don’t break my heart to help me!

It’s 4 in the morning my ankles are swollen

I’m stumbling home from the bar and it’s morning,

I feel like tomorrow I’m going to change this

Start a new day here and one day embrace it.

Remember the summers we never wore sweaters

Played in the parklands and lazed about hammocks

Dreaming of spring time, autumn and lovers!

And we never gave into becoming nothing until now

I need time to rest my head against my knees.

You’re not alone don’t break your back to find me,

I need more than this to make me change my mind.

You’re not alone, don’t break my heart to help me!

And this was the first time I felt like falling away!

Don’t let this get you down until it’s pinned you down

The bottle was all I needed
