Lyrics 2 A.M. - Reckless Serenade

2 A.M.

I felt darkness, in every breath that escaped me
Couldn’t keep the sun from setting on this tired city
Lost and lonely, keeping time with this offbeat heart I keep
You see, there was a sadness I couldn’t explain
I kept it quiet, kept it hidden away
I hoped for better days
It was 2am and my car could not get faster
Deep in thought, not sure what I was after
There must be a reason for the way I was losing mind to feel fine
I was thinking bout the world and where I fit
I didn’t know then what it meant to just exist
To preoccupied with everything I couldn’t fix
I longed for light, I found it, I found it
I felt fire die down to gleaming embers
I felt chills run up my spine
I remember feeling trapped in a storm I could not weather
It was like my life was a show
And curtains were dropping
I was sitting in the back could not stop watching
No I couldn’t help from watching
It was 2am and my car could not get faster
Deep in thought, not sure what I was after
There must be a reason for the way I was losing mind to feel fine
I was thinking bout the world and where I fit
I didn’t know then what it meant to just exist
To preoccupied with everything I couldn’t fix
I longed for light, I found it, I found it
I was a captain, my heart was an anchor falling fast beneath my sinking ship
I was a captain, my heart was an anchor falling fast beneath my sinking ship
And you were a life boat
The light of a light house that I can’t believe I almost missed
Oh my god, I owe you everything
And we caught the sunrise sneak up past the horizon
Streaks of gold ran up our tangled spines
This fire raged inside
It was 2am and my car could not get faster
Deep in thought, not sure what I was after
There must be a reason for the way I was losing mind to feel fine
I was thinking bout the world and where I fit
I didn’t know then what it meant to just exist
To preoccupied with everything I couldn’t fix
I longed for light, I found it, I found it
