4am Lullaby

Next to you

I'm standing in the Dark

I take the late Train and you pick me up in your Car

And you say

You play with open Cards

So show me yours and I'll show you my Heart

The Words that we speak form a stream down the Edge of this Bed

Thoughts they flow freely when it's dark and you rest your Head

Pour them out onto the Sheets

They don't weigh so heavy

When your Eyes are wide open in the Middle of the Night

In our 4am Lullaby

Next to you

I'm lying in the Dark

And your Lips spill while we're nursing our Scars

All your Doubt, how you tell yourself to Shreds

How you run from the Friends that you made in your Head

Next to me

Oh they creep

Up the Walls as we talk ourselves to Sleep

Tired Mouths and tired Eyes

Searching Hands and tired Sighs

Tomorrow we'll part Ways

Pretend that nothing's changed

Tired Mouths and tired Eyes

Searching Hands and tired Sighs

When the Sun comes up, if the Night was Day

Would you say the same
