4 AM by Codex Obscura Lyrics

I wear the night like a shroud
The light illuminates my face
My life means nothing
I merely perpetuate the agony of existence

I have no reason to stay awake
But here I am in a cloud of smoke
The stinging cold my face
It makes me feel like I'm alive
It makes me feel like I am dying alone

Everything feels numb

Take one look in the mirror
Before ascending back up to your cell
The anger and fear you feel right now-
In the face of a man who wants you dead
-It's only natural
I love you more than I love myself
But there's a line that I must cross to get to you
There is a man that I must kill to get to you
It is myself
I am the trap I set for you

The numbers on the screen
They don’t mean a thing now
Oh the weeks how they bleed
And I feel my body aging
I can feel my teeth rotting

Seconds tick away
I’m getting older and my time is nearly up
I lie on empty laurels coveting from a distance
And I want to know why I can’t just move
To find another reason why I can’t jump off

I swear it’s not a sickness
These things they come in whispers
And I’m the one who hears it
And you’re the one who leaves me
