2:47 am

Lyrics

“2:47 A.M.”
(Intro — soft, tired tone)
Yeah…
I don’t even know anymore
Just been thinking a lot lately
(Verse 1)
It’s 2:47 and I still can’t sleep
Mind running circles while the house too deep
Phone on silent but I still check texts
Looking for something I probably won’t get
Everybody growing up too fast now
Old friends gone, barely see them around
Funny how life turn people to ghosts
One day they close then you don’t talk no more
And I miss when things felt simple
Back when happiness wasn’t this difficult
Back when nights meant laughing for hours
Now everybody got walls and problems
I been feeling disconnected lately
Like the world moving weird and changing
People only care when something dramatic
Everybody anxious but we mask it
And maybe I do too
Smile in public then go quiet in my room
Cause I don’t really know how to explain
This constant pressure sitting on my brain
(Hook — melodic/chill)
And I’ve been drifting through the night
Trying to figure out this life
Cause nothing really feels the same
And everybody hiding pain
So I just drive with no destination
Late night thoughts and conversations
Trying not to lose myself
In this world obsessed with everything else
(Verse 2)
I hate how social media changed us
Everybody watching but nobody saying much
Just posting highlights from a fake perfect life
While barely surviving when the camera off at night
And people say “that’s just life”
But honestly sometimes that don’t sound right
Cause why everybody so lonely now?
Why every room feel colder now?
Even when I’m with people
Sometimes I still feel see-through
Like nobody really knows me deep
Or notices when I barely sleep
And I know I should probably talk more
But I hate feeling weak at my core
So I keep everything locked away
Till it all spill out on random days
Some nights I just drive around town
Windows cracked while the music loud
Thinking ‘bout people I used to know
Wondering where all the time even goes
Cause one second you’re young and dumb
Next second childhood already done
Now everybody stressed about money and jobs
Trying not to drown while the clock keeps running
(Bridge — beat softer)
And maybe that’s the part nobody tells you
Growing up ain’t exciting forever
Sometimes it’s just exhausting
Sometimes it’s missing old versions of yourself
(Verse 3 — slightly faster but still chill)
I been thinking maybe everybody lost
Just pretending they know their thoughts
Cause nobody really got life figured out
We just act confident and walk it out
And honestly that scares me bad
How quick good things become the past
How memories fade little by little
Till old friends turn into random people
I still think about certain nights
Old songs, old jokes, old drives
Back when life felt infinite
Before everything got complicated
Now bills matter and sleep don’t happen
And everybody coping through distractions
Scrolling endlessly to avoid their heads
Cause silence make thoughts feel heavier
And I wonder if it gets better later
Or if we just learn how to fake it greater
Cause adults always act so composed
But deep down maybe they don’t know
Maybe everybody just tired
Trying to feel something real for a while
Trying not to break under expectations
Trying to survive modern conversations
And I know this song ain’t got answers
No big ending, no hidden chapters
Just thoughts from somebody awake too late
Trying to make sense of the weight
(Outro — fading)
Yeah…
It’s crazy
How loud life gets
When you finally sit in silence.
