5AM Lyrics

[Intro]
It's five a.m., it's five a.m. 
It's five a.m., it's five a.m. 

[Verse 1]
Wish I could say that I saw it coming
Problem is I never do
And it's too late to let myself feel something
So I'll just keep running from you

[Chorus]
It's five a.m., where is my head?
I think I left it at the bar again
I don't know when I'll stumble to bed
We'll probably wake up in an argument
Can't save myself from five a.m. 

[Post-Chorus]
It's five a.m. 

[Verse 2]
No other lonely like an all-night sunrise
It's the only light I see
No better feeling when I look into your loving eyes
They see the good that I could be
[Chorus]
But it's five a.m., wherе is my head?
I think I left it at the bar again
I don't know whеn I'll stumble to bed
We'll probably wake up in an argument
Can't save myself from five a.m. 

[Bridge]
Even with my best intentions
Can't change my way of living
How are you so good with your life
While I'm here fucking up mine

[Chorus]
It's five a.m. and where is my head?
I think I left it at the bar again
I don't know when I'll stumble to bed
We'll probably wake up in an argument
Can't save myself from five a.m. 
Where is my head?
I think I left it at the bar again
I don't know when I'll stumble to bed
We'll probably wake up in an argument
Can't save myself from five a.m. 

[Outro]
It's five a.m. 
Can't save myself from five a.m. 
It's five a.m. 

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
