It always happens like this
When the sun goes down
No one else is around to hear my thoughts
It feels like I'm the only human alive
No one else is awake beside the ghost of the past
I can't escape it
It's 2 a.m., 2 a.m
And I can't get out of my head, of my head
And I'm just lying in my bed, in my bed
Hoping they'll pick up the phone
But I just wanna be alone, be alone
But I don't wanna be lonely
So somebody please hear me
At 2 a.m. there's no one to hear
There's no one here

It always happens like this
When the moon's shining
I can't even take the words I give
I can't even bear the sound of my voice
It's tired and worn from lack of sleep
And I can't take it
It's 2 a.m., 2 a.m
And I can't get out of my head, of my head
And I'm just lying in my bed, in my bed
Hoping they'll pick up the phone
But I just wanna be alone, be alone
But I don't wanna be lonely
So somebody please hear me
At 2 a.m. there's no one to hear
There's no one here
La da da
La da da da da da da
La da da
La da da da da da da da
My phone screen shines, it's 2 a.m
It happened again
Every night, on repeat
And my head aches, yes it aches
(And my heart)
It aches for the person I am during the day
At 2 a.m. it all just slips away
When I look in the mirror, don't see myself (myself)
At 2 a.m
It's 2 a.m., 2 a.m
And I can't get out of my head, of my head
And I'm just lying in my bed, in my bed
Hoping they'll pick up the phone (up the phone)
But I just wanna be alone, be alone
But I don't wanna be lonely (I don't wanna be lonely)
So somebody please hear me (please hear me)
At 2 a.m. there's no one to hear
There's no one here
