She’s up at 4 in the morning
Couldn’t ignore the feeling any more
She needed something sweet
Something hot
Something to make it through
To stop the feeling
That woke her up too soon
She poured a cup of coffee
Added a bit of milk and made it sweet
Then reached for the cookies
Peanut butter and chocolate
Heaven help her
Cause she can’t help herself
When there’s a hunger burning inside her
All those good intentions and promises go right out the door
She vowed to make up for it
By doing twice as much
Working even harder
To counteract her 4 o’clock cravings
Lord knows she tries
But she’s only got one life
And if this is one of her vices
Well, heaven help her
Because she can’t help herself
She’ll drink every last drop
Lick her fingers till all trace is gone
Then slide back in
Between the sheets
Satisfied for the time being
Until she wakes up
Craving something else again.
