Vanessa Carlton This Time Lyrics

It's 4 am and I'm wide awake, waiting for my thoughts to fade
And the flickering of all of my mistakes
And as the light starts creeping in, I slowly feel the day I'm missing
And I don't even know where to begin

And 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 jus't cant walk away this time

The white circle in my head, it weighs so heavy on my chest
And I'm crushed by your expectation
Only want to do some good, too dumb to know if I could
And I just wanna feel the days I miss

And do I go too far, not far enough, why can't I keep my big mouth shut
And do and lead the life that we should
'Cause everybody burns and when it starts to hurt, I cry
I feel it in my veins, I jus't cant walk away this time

Did I say too much again, I'm just a girl in a bed
If I tell you my truth, am I getting through?
And it just seems I should confess and who am I to pretend?
This is more than I can carry

And 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
And it's times like these I see your face
