3:57 am
it's 3:57 am
 and you're still on my mind. 
 
 the fact that you crept into my head after
 
 I sealed all windows shut is beyond me but
 
 the raw thoughts are haunting me again tonight and
 
 you said that you would be here. 
 
 where are you?
 
 it's 3:58 
 
 and oh, my pillow still smells like you
 
 and I think I'm intoxicated on our
 
 memories and broken promises so
 
 maybe if I could just 
 
 get some sleep I wouldn't be waiting for a call when even my phone is sound asleep
 
 where are you
 
 it's 3:59 
 
 each ticking second reminds me of how 
 
 time was endless with you. 
 
 my vision is blurred like the
 
 way you used to make my sadness feel
 
 and that sinking feeling is
 back again and you 
 
 said that you would be here 
 
 you're not here
 
 so where are you?
 
 it's 4 am now
 
 and the sun will be up soon. 
 
 I'm scared to fall asleep because I'm 
 
 haunted by the idea of waking up. 
 
 I miss you so much that
 
 I don't think I should get up tomorrow morning
 
 (??or ever again??) and you said
 
 you'd be here but you're not and why are my eyes leaking
 
 oh where are you
 
 where are you oh where are you oh where 
 
 it's 4:01 
 
 maybe you're up missing me too
 
 but I doubt that. 
 
 my pride doesn't hold me the way that you used to
 
 and neither does independence 
 
 it hurts me so bad to 
 
 imagine another day without you 
 
 baby I'm tired 
 
 my eyes are so heavy and so is my sorrow 
 
 it's a heavy burden to Cary all alone 
 
 and i sure hope you're having dreams of 
 
 you and me 
 
 it's 4:02 and
 
 you're not here. 
 
 oh but darling, these hours are so long 
 
 and my tears left bites in my wrists. 
 
 if only I could go back in time to when you were
 
 mine because 
 
 I can't sleep in this bed without you in it and
 
 baby I want to die 
 
 without you and 
 
 I miss you so much and
 
 I can't sleep and I'm 
 
 sorry and it's 4:03 and you're not here and neither am I anymore so
 
 where are you oh where are you oh where are you 
 
 it's 4:04 am.
