3 am

It’s 3 AM and I'm wide awake
Clock ticking like a slow heartbreak
Phone screen lit, no messages
Just ghosts in all my sentences

Pillow talk with no one here
Silence louder than my fear
I scroll through pictures I should’ve burned
Replay lessons I never learned

And I keep asking why
In the dark, I never lie

3 AM, and I’m falling apart
Talking to shadows, breaking my heart
Thoughts spinning like ceiling fans
Holding regrets in both hands
I swear I’m fine, but then again
It’s always worse at 3 AM

I whisper truths into the night
No one hears, but it feels right
All the what ifs and could’ve beens
Creep back in like deadly sins

The air is heavy, my chest is tight
I write your name, then scratch it right
Wish I could sleep, just disappear
But dreams of you still live here

And I keep breaking down
When the silence wears the crown

3 AM, and I’m losing my mind
Stuck in rewind, can’t press decline
Memories flood like ocean tides
I drown alone, no place to hide
I say I’m okay but that’s pretend
It always hits at 3 AM

Maybe I’m not built for peace
Maybe I just want release
But this room knows every tear
Every scream I won’t let near

3 AM, and I’m breaking again
Counting scars I call my friends
You’re not here, but I still bend
Calling your name into the end
No one sees the mess I am
But it’s all clear at 3 AM
