3 AM lyrics - Chiodos

I hear the sound of a clock,
And the drip of running water...
I never thought it'd be like this.
It's 3 am, and I can't sleep.

I had it all planned out.
Find a girl and get married,
Do things that make your dreams.
Oh, look at me,
What more you could need?

I knew that I could win a room because I've always had it.
... but love is a scary thing.
It's what they never taught,
And I don't know now what's got me this far.

It's only in the end when you were gone,
I didn't realize what I had lost.
These one night stands are meaningless...
But I'm lying in bed, with a girl I just met,
At 3am.

I wish I would've loved you instead of being selfish,
And being so obsessed in my dreams.
Oh, look at me! I'm surrounded by the lonely.
I thought that I could win you back because I've always had it.
... but love is a tricky thing.
It's what they never taught, that when you lose what you love,
You lose a piece of your heart.

All I wanted was the world.
All you wanted was me.

It's only in the end when you were gone,
I didn't realize what I had lost.
These one night stands are meaningless...
But I'm lying in bed, with a girl I just met,
At 3am.

... and every day I still learn.
From the mistakes that I have made.
Who knew that things would be this way?
I'm here because I wouldn't change.
I've fallen on my face,
But watch me get up again.

It's only in the end when you were gone,
I didn't realize what I had lost.
These one night stands are meaningless...
But I'm lying in bed, with a girl I just met,
At 3am.
