Discover the story of the song > Four in the Morning – The Youngbloods

The protagonist is going through a tough time at 4am. His partner left him, his stove doesn't work, and he has no drinks or food. He's lying down, surrounded by empty bottles and dirty dishes, and even sees a cockroach crawling around. He thinks it's tough to be a man when his partner leaves him. Later, he mentions shooting someone and a person coming to ask him for money, but he only had a dollar. The song ends with the repeated line "four in the morning, the water is pouring down."
