Vanessa Carlton

Its four A.M 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 wouldn't even know where to begin
Do i push to hard
Fall too 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 cant walk away
This time
Your words circle in my head
Weigh so heavy on my chest
and I'm crushed by your expectations
I only want to do some good
Too dumb to know if i could
and I just want to feel the days i'm in
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
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 i 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
It's 4 am and I'm wide awake
Waiting for my thoughts to fade
Its times like these when i see your face
I hope you like it, and for the last verse/bridge thing, you can play whtever chord
fits your voice.
