6 A.M. or Nearer

[Verse 1]

There ain't no reason to talk

About the things I could have done

My living don't come easy

And I've hardly just begun

I'm not getting back the heartaches like before

Anymore, anymore

They say seeing is believing

So I lent myself to travel

Soon became experienced

And my soul turned into gravel

Turned every stone and opened every door

Like before, like before

[Chorus]

Sun was hardly shining

It was 6 A.M. or nearer

My mind was sick of trying

As the sky became a mirror

I really felt like dying

It was 6 A.M. or nearer

I was drowning

I was drowning

[Verse 2]

I soon got sick of falling

So I took a try in praying

I heard somebody calling

Might have been a baby playing

And I fell down from the ceiling to the floor

Like before

Like before

[Chorus]
