lyrics

Your 4am philosophy is broken,
your apology is lost
All your notes in the snow back home

It's 4am and it's happening again,
and every cricket is a false key change
A wind howling through the den
is blowing everything away

Your heart beats slower when you’re sprinting,
throat clearer when you’re sick
Pounding your fists sore on the side of something
you know you missed the mark but you don’t know the mark you missed

There’s nothing left of today,
the only solace in your dreams
All of your castles washed away
You might as well go back to sleep

It's 4am and it’s happening again,
the footsteps of the enemy
And outside a gale-force wind
is ripping out a front yard tree

Your heart beats slower when you’re sprinting,
throat clearer when you’re sick
Pounding your fists sore on the side of something.
Under house arrest but you don’t know the house you’re in

Your 4am philosophy is broken
your apology is lost
All your notes, in the snow back home

There’s nothing left of today,
the only solace in your dreams
All of your castles washed away
You might as well go back to sleep

Your 4am philosophy is broken,
you’re honestly lost
Take this line of ignoiology and close it,
your physiology’s the cost
And we've already lost a lot. I thought
this dumb philosophy was over
But it’s obviously not
All of hypnology is broken,
it’s honestly lost,
and we already lost a lot

There’s nothing left of today
the only solace in your dreams
All of your castles washed away
You might as well go back to sleep
Drop the 4am philosophy
