5AM Songtext
von Floodlights

I sit atop the highest building in the city
The sun leaks, the streets look pretty
Smoke bellows from factories out west
The river brown from things that it can′t digest
Hands move and so does everyone
Lives collide and traffic starts to choke
Cigarettes and coffee swamp my senses
I dismiss a thought of my dependence
I romanticise of things to come
Heightened dreams from the wind filling my lungs
My eyes pirouette around this place
A sea of houses that all look the same

It's 5am, I′m looking at the things around me
It's 5am, I'm looking at the things around me


The chance
The odds
The roads
The love
The pain
What′s real
The rapture I feel

When anything could be and the chance has no lean, imagination, thrilling for burning life
I′m living but all I can do is look at the things around me and dream

When anything could be and the chance has no lean, imagination, thrilling for burning life
I'm living but all I can do is look at the things around me and dream

The chance
The odds
The roads
The love
The pain
What′s real
The rapture I feel

When anything could be and the chance has no lean, imagination, thrilling for burning life
I'm living but all I can do is look at the things around me and dream

When anything could be and the chance has no lean, imagination, thrilling for burning life
I′m living but all I can do is look at the things around me and dream
