5 AM

It's 5 AM and I'm watching you sleep
Curled inside a dream you can't escape
I feel sometimes our life is too late
To realize what we've become.

My fingers touch your skin so soft
A few days ago it were just scars
And I have a feeling that we lost
A long battle that was never ours.

I wish I could tell you everything
But life made you know it all.
I sometimes hear you when you sing
About a love that we once had.

It's hard to fight with the pressure
That keeps strangling me day by day
And I'm trying so hard to be okay
Only that you could take a deep breath.

I hope you look around in your dream
But the dream is what you're living now
Only in your sleep you might be free
Of everything our life made us endure.

I'm so sorry I dragged you here
At 5 AM in my lonely bed of sorrows
I wish I'd be able to only borrow
A happier future for us.
