Lyrics
0:30Intruder comes it's 4 a.m.
0:35The witching hour's back again and I
0:42I'm running ragged through the maze
0:49I know the heart's a tricky beast like some
0:53Cool ephemeral spirit of the night
0:59Lures you in robs you blind and leaves you bleeding on the street
1:06When all you want is arms around you
1:11And a whisper in your ear
1:16Saying everything's gonna be alright
1:21Even if it's not
1:25'Cause you're only human
1:29You can only take so much before you break
1:34And you feel like you're drowning alone and the waves keep on coming
1:39And hold you down
1:42And the circle goes 'round and 'round and 'round and you can't breathe
1:50But there's light that you can't see
1:59'Cause I know these rooms these prison halls
2:03I've stumbled through so many times before
2:09To find the devil lurking just behind the door
2:17But I don't pretend to understand
2:21The roads you've walked how you still stand but I
2:28Wanna try to lift some of the burdens that you bear
2:35When all you want is arms around you
2:40And a whisper in your ear
2:45Saying everything's gonna be alright
2:50Even if it's not
2:53'Cause you're only human
2:58You can only take so much before you break
3:03Feels like you're drowning alone and the waves keep on coming
3:08And hold you down
3:12And the circle goes 'round and 'round and 'round till you can't breathe
3:19But there's light that you can't see
3:29Yeah there's light you cannot see
Intruder comes it's 4 a.m. The witching hour's back again and I I'm running ragged through the maze I know the heart's a tricky beast like some Cool ephemeral spirit of the night Lures you in robs you blind and leaves you bleeding on the street When all you want is arms around you And a whisper in your ear Saying everything's gonna be alright Even if it's not 'Cause you're only human You can only take so much before you break And you feel like you're drowning alone and the waves keep on coming And hold you down And the circle goes 'round and 'round and 'round and you can't breathe But there's light that you can't see 'Cause I know these rooms these prison halls I've stumbled through so many times before To find the devil lurking just behind the door But I don't pretend to understand The roads you've walked how you still stand but I Wanna try to lift some of the burdens that you bear When all you want is arms around you And a whisper in your ear Saying everything's gonna be alright Even if it's not 'Cause you're only human You can only take so much before you break Feels like you're drowning alone and the waves keep on coming And hold you down And the circle goes 'round and 'round and 'round till you can't breathe But there's light that you can't see Yeah there's light you cannot see
