lyrics

5oclock comes to early again
awaken
somebodys
left
and offer you just can't ignore
there's a decision to be made
is it even worth it anymore
I'm sorry
im not sorry
i dont owe you shit
don't waste your breath on things that ended so long ago
before they began if you really stop to think
experience shows you how you should handle yourself next time
on the firing line
when temptation comes to you into your inner view take a step back and decide and always remember
if its easy then its wrong
if it hurts you then its right
if you work hard and you struggle
you'll surely sleep through the night

fictional k
there's no need to explain yourself you're lost
its obvious to see

don't waste you're breath on things that ended so long ago before they began if you really stop to think
experience shows you how you should handle yourself next time you're on the firing line
when temptation comes to you into your inner view take a step back and decide and always remember
if its easy then its wrong
if it hurts you then its right
if you work hard then your struggle
will help you sleep through the night
