4 o'clock A.M

"Four o'clock A.M. in the morning, you're the last to hear the warning / You see the storm, it has been brewing/ You've been tryin' to hug the sky / And pray on to your deity/ You've been falling off to sleep/ you need your coffee/ you are weak/ your lips move but you can't talk /  You've been trying to hug the sky/ Answer back deity /

Won't you answer please/ but the silence is enough to keep you awake; And goin'

Enough for you to wipe the crust from your sagging wrinkled eye/ Hello Dad, hello Mom, I think I'm gonna try again / I think I will hug the sky / Embrace my life / I have to for my sons/ I wonder how they'll be without me when I die|"
