Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse

It's 4 am and I'm wide awake

waiting for my thoughts to fade

a flickering of all of my mistakes

and as the light starts creeping in

 I slowly feel

 the day I'm missing

 but I won't even know where to begin

Chorus

 do I push too hard

 I fall too fast

 a moment never seems to last

 and will I stop long enough to know

'cause everybody burns

 and when it starts to hurt, I cry

I feel it in my veins

 I just cant walk away, this time.

Verse

your words circle in my head

 and weigh so heavy on my chest

 and I'm crushed by your expectation

I only want to do some good

 to dumb to know if i could

 and i just wanna feel the days I'm in

 and do I go too far

 not far enough

 why can't I keep my big mouth shut

 and do we lead the life that we should

 and everybody burns

 and when it starts to hurt, I cry

 I feel it in my veins

 I just cant walk away, this time.

did I say too much again?

 I'm just a girl in a panic

 if I tell you my truth

 am I getting through?

 and it just seems I should confess

 who am I to pretend?

this is more than I can carry

 'cause 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 cant walk away this time.

this time

this time

it's 4 am and im wide awake

waiting for my thoughts to fade

 and it's time like these I see your face
