This Time - Vanessa Carlton
It's 4 am and I'm wide awake
Waiting for
my thoughts to fade
A flickering of all
of my mistake
as the light starts
creeping in I slowly feel
The day I'm missing
But I wouldn't even know
where to begin
Do I push to hard
Or fall to fast
The moment never
seems to last
Will I stop long
enough to know
Everybody burns
And when it starts to hurt
I cry
I feel it in my veins
I just can't walk away
This time
Your words circle in my head
Weigh so heavy on my chest
And I'm crushed by
your expectation
I only want to do some good
Too dumb to know if I could
And I just wanna
feel the days I'm in
Do I go to far
Not far enough
Why can't I keep my
big mouth shut
And do we lead the
life that not we should
Everybody burns
And when it starts to hurt
I cry
I feel it in my veins
I just can't walk away
This time
Did I say to much again
I'm just a girl in a panic
If I tell you my truth
Am I getting through
It just seems
I should confess
Who am I to pretend
This is more than I can carry
Everybody burns
And when it starts to hurt
I cry
I hold my head up high
I know I'll be alright
This time
I feel it in my veins
I just can't walk away
This time

This time
This time

This time
This time
It's 4 am and I'm wide awake
Waiting for
my thoughts to fade
It's times like these
I see your face
