Artist/Band: Howie Day
Lyrics for Song: 40 Hours
Lyrics for Album: Sound The Alarm [2009]



Lately after dark

I've been wandering through the park

With the angry words you said

Wandering through my head



There's nothing I can do

To keep from feeling like I blew

The only chance I had to make it better



The shadow on the wall

Is looking down from 10 feet tall

And I wonder what it sees

As I stumble through the streets



To never feel alone

It seemed written down in stone

But now it's all I can do

To try and forget her



40 hours

And counting

I could shut my eyes

And sleep here



Morning comes and goes

And I'm tangle in the throes

In the stillness of my room

And the bandage on my wound



My heart becomes a bird

She set free with just a word

And now I'm wishing

That I had never met her



40 hours

And counting

I could shut my eyes

And sleep here



People rushing by

Out the corner of my eye

A kaleidoscope of bloom

A mirror broke in two



A thousand little stars

And in a million little wars

Scattered out across the open desert



40 hours

And counting

I shut my eyes

And sleep here



[instrumental]



A world is set ablaze

By a never ending haze

And you're closer than a tear

I see you ever clear



The rushes in the veins

And there's nothing else to blame

But every minute, every hour,

Every second



40 hours

And counting

I shut my eyes and sleep here

Shut my eyes and sleep to dream



Lately after dark

I've been wandering thru the park

With the angry words you said

Wandering through my head



There's nothing I can do

To keep from feeling like I blew

The only chance I had to make it better
