Serena46966 Posted June 18, 2005 Report Share Posted June 18, 2005 Please help me-- I have become obsessed with finding this song and I don't have much info to go on. I just heard a snippet on the radio, and I don't even have the exact lyrics. It is sung by a female and it says something about waking up in the middle of the night and needing to write down words before they "take the life that made them" or that created them or something like that. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted June 19, 2005 Report Share Posted June 19, 2005 It sounds like Anna Nalicks song Breathe (3am). The part that matches what you wrote goes: 2Am and I'm still awake writing this song If i get it all down on paper it's no longer inside of me threaten' the life it belongs to. You can listen to the entire song HERE. Full lyrics: 2 Am and she calls me cause I'm still awake Can you help me unravel my latest mistake I don't love him and winter just wasn't my season. Yea we walk through the doors so accusing their eyes Like they have any right at all to criticize Hypocrites you're all here for the very same reason. Cause you can't jump the track We're like cars on a cable and life's like an hourglass glued to the table, No one can find the rewind button girl So just cradle your head in your hands. And breathe, just breathe, whoa breathe just breathe May he turned 21 on the base of Fort Bliss Just today he sat down to the flask in his fist Ain't been sober since maybe October of last year Here in town you can tell he's been down for while But my God it's so beautiful when the boy smiles Wanna hold him but maybe I'll just sing about it Cause you can't jump the track We're like cars on a cable And life's like an hourglass glued to the table, No one can find the rewind button boys so cradle your head in your hands And breathe, just breathe, whoa breath just breathe There's a light at the end of this tunnel you shout cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out And these mistakes you've made You'll just make them again if you'll only try turnin' around 2Am and I'm still awake writing this song If i get it all down on paper it's no lonmger inside of me threaten' the life it belongs to. And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd Cause these words are my diary screamin' out aloud And I know that you'll use them however you want to. But you can't jump the track We're like cars on a cable And life's like an hourglass glued to the table, No one can find the rewind button now Sing it if you understand...yeah breath Just breathe, ohho breathe, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
