4 o'clock in the morning,

Still we cannot sleep

Turning over

Turning round

Twisting in our sweat

They say there is no rest for the wicked ones

Dear god - what have we done?

There is no rest for the wicked ones

Dear god - what is this evil that we've done??

There is no rest for the wicked ones

Dear god - what is this evil that we've done??

Is it that we wanted more than you gave

Why did you put us then

In this smalltown grave

Humility - is that what you want?

Why did you make us then the way you did??

Yes, we have pride

Yes, we have pride -

Is this our sin?

Is this our sin?!

4 o'clock...

Is it the times that we've been out fighting ?

Well i'll tell you all those times -

We never really hurt anybody

Or is it that we were eating

While other people were starving

Is this our crime ?

Is this our crime ??!

4 o'clock...

Is it the times we laughed about it all

Through all those whisky nights so far away

Yes, we have betrayed you

Yes, we have betrayed you -

Is this our crime ?

Is this our crime ?!

4 o'clock...
