Some nights, the silence speaks louder than words.
🌙 Two O’Clock is a soft rock ballad for the sleepless dreamers, the ones who lie awake replaying memories that won’t let go. With its haunting melody and deeply emotional lyrics, this song captures the ache of missing someone, the weight of what could have been, and the loneliness of watching the clock tick toward dawn.
If you’ve ever lost sleep over a love that still lingers in your heart, this one’s for you.

Two O’Clock
It’s two o’clock in the morning
Can’t sleep again
The silence around me is calling
Open my eyes and then…
I see your face right before me
Stars fall down from the sky
These memories conspire to assault me
A dark lullaby
Sometimes I just lie awake and I stare at the ceiling
These times that I know the ache of the love that I’m feeling
Only if
but I can’t
now you’re gone
It’s five o’clock in the morning
It all starts again
Another cold day is dawning
Close my eyes and then…
At night I just lie awake and I stare at the ceiling
The dawn seems so far away and the ache isn’t healing
Only if
you were here
Only if
but I can’t
now you’re gone
now you’re gone
