Steve Lillywhite - 4:12 lyrics

You've been having trouble staying asleep You been waking up at 4:12 You roll the voices over in your head And you try to put them neatly on the shelf You watch the sun rise Saw the darkness had no choice before the dawn With your own eyes And then you broke out laughing from a yawn I'm so sorry I've been so down I started doubting things could ever turn around And I began to believe that all we are is material It's nonsensical So you walk outside and everything's new You're looking at the world with new eyes As if you'd never seen the sky before this blue As if you've never seen the sky in your whole life And then the phone rings As it turns out you are already late And now you're wondering Is peace just a temporary state? Waiting tables and parking cars You've been selling cell phones at the shopping mall And you began to believe that all we are is material It's nonsensical I'm so sorry I've been so down I started doubting things could ever turn around But I still can't believe that all we are And that all of our dreams are nothing more than material Souls aren't built of stone, sticks, and bones Souls aren't built of stone Souls aren't built of stone, sticks, and bones
