Five in the morning, lying in bed
Listening to the thunderstorm in her head
Looks around the room as she opens her eyes
Pictures on the mantle of a life gone by
She`s been sleeping a long time
Quiet now, everyone still asleep
She can feel her heart beating, she can hear herself breathe
Her mother told her to be a dark mystery
But the darkness is out of control and she can`t see
But at least she`s alive
CHORUS
She`s gonna hit the ground running from this dead end street
Saved by the power of her own two feet
Remembering a song from long ago
It`s around and around, it`s the way things go
The way things go
Shivers in the cold, slips on her clothes
Walks downstairs, icy wind blows
Face to face inside the front door
It`s not a crime to need more
There`s something I`m looking for
If you leave now you can never come back
You`re throwing us away, you can`t do that
I`m falling like a leaf from the family tree
I don`t need you the way you need me
You need me
CHORUS (2x)
Five in the morning, lying in bed
Listening to the thunderstorm in her head
