5:55 lyrics - Charlotte Gainsbourg

A cinq heures cinquante-cinq 
Awake with open eyes 
A drift upon the night 
And miles away from land 

Five fifty five 
Five fifty five 

A cinq heures cinquante-cinq 
Ante meridiem 
Too late to end it now 
Too early to start again 

Five fifty five 
Five fifty five 

Soon the morning will arrive 
Can I begin another day 
Whilst this old day is still alive 
Refusing to be put away 

Five fifty five 
No sleep tonight 
Five fifty five 

Like a beast awaits its faith 
Laid here with time to kill 
The very dead of night 
Where time and space stand still 

Five fifty five 
Five fifty five 

A cinq heures cinquante-cinq 
Nothing will ever change 
On the altar of my thought 
I sacrifice myself again and again and again 

Five fifty five 
Five fifty five
