The clock rolls on, it’s 3 a.m. Wondering What am I doing here Through flickering light And another cigarette Alone, again I search for words And what comes next I love the night When the morning breaks The clock rolls on, it’s 5 a.m. And I’m still here Thinking of you And what comes next Heavy eyes, feel so tired But I'll carry on 'Cause maybe, someday You'll be here With me When the morning breaks
These are the hours between life and death, it seems. Alone in the void… lovely work.
