3 AM

I think too much about the things I can't control
My ego's convinced that I could fix it
I'll hold your hand and wipe your tears until you're whole
But won't answer honest how I'm feeling

'Cuz my breathing's seeming heavier
The walls are caving in
There's that familiar feeling again

What if everybody who I thought loved me
Only loved my help?
And every person thinks I'm a burden?
I'm better by myself
What if nothing I do is impressive?
I work harder and I feel more average
Not been sleeping, 'cuz I'm not enough
And I can't seem to like myself
At three AM

Don't tell me midnights have become my afternoons
It's not a choice to stay up spiraling
I close my eyes and visualize"five, four, three, two"
When will my chest give up on tightening?

'Cuz my breathing's seeming heavier
The walls are caving in
There's that familiar feeling again

What if everybody who I thought loved me
Only loved my help?
And every person thinks I'm a burden?
I'm better by myself
What if nothing I do is impressive?
I work harder and I feel more average
Not been sleeping, 'cuz I'm not enough
And I can't seem to like myself
At three AM

The cycle's repeating again
And the friends that I love most can't help
'Cuz I don't let them in
And I only trust myself
Won't confide in someone else in case they leave
So I'll just breathe

I hope everybody who might just love me
Also likes my help
If I'm a person who's not a burden
I'm never by myself
Doesn't matter if I am impressive
Working hard isn't measured by average
Not been sleeping, but I'm still enough
Guess I'm learning to like myself
At three AM
