Bears in Trees
4am (reimagined)
[Verse 1]
I've woken up, it's 4 AM
And I'm unable to breathe again
My lungs have given up on me
And my throat is collapsing

[Pre-Chorus]
I will cough the night away
I will cough all through the day
I won't stop, despite the medicine
Until 3 AM the next morning

[Verse 2]
And I know you're not asleep yet
For God's sake, it's only 4 AM
You're probably thinking about what you want to be
Despite not knowing what that means

[Pre-Chorus]
And you will think the night away
And you will think all through the day
You won't sleep, despite the medicine
Until 3 AM the next morning

[Chorus]
She's a social smoker, I'm an asthma patient
She's experimenting with not breathing and I want out
Shе wants to live her life, but doеsn't know how
Well, neither do I, but I'm just dealing with it right now
[Verse 3]
She wants to move far away
But is worried she'll be out of place
And there's a look on her face
That says her heart's beginning to race

[Verse 4]
She says, "The way it is makes me angry"
"And I don't want you to think of me badly"
But I swallow my pride and I say
"You've gotta do what makes you happy"

[Pre-Chorus]
I will cough the night away
I will cough all through the day
I won't stop, despite the medicine
Until 3 AM the next morning

[Chorus]
She's a social smoker, I'm an asthma patient
She's experimenting with not breathing and I want out
She wants to live her life, but doesn't know how
Well, neither do I, but I'm just dealing with it right now

[Bridge]
I've been trying to break the ice
But I've been feeling like the Titanic
Could you meet me somewhere maybe
Between outgoing and tragic?
I've been trying to break the ice
But I've been feeling like the Titanic
Could you meet me somewhere maybe
Between outgoing and tragic?
I've been trying to break the ice (She's a social smoker)
But I've been feeling like the Titanic (I'm an asthma patient)
Could you meet me somewhere maybe between (She's experimenting with not breathing)
Outgoing and tragic? (And I want out)
I've been trying to break the ice (She wants to live her life but)
But I've been feeling like the Titanic (Doesn't know how)
Could you meet me somewhere maybe? (Well, neither do I, but I'm just)
Could you meet me somewhere maybe? (Dealing with it right now)
[Chorus]
She's a social smoker, I'm an asthma patient
She's experimenting with not breathing and I want out
She wants to live her life, but doesn't know how
Well, neither do I, but I'm just dealing with it right now
