Thee More Shallows - 2 Am lyrics

When it begins Sound rushes in And drowns out everything Sideways in bed You cover your ears The roar is deafening When it won't quit You stagger up And into the hall But out there it's louder It's somebody's party You start to yell: "Hey, buddy, hey! Hey, buddy, please Would you quiet down? You're k**ing me It's 2 AM, I'm trying to sleep!" But the sound keeps going 'Til the walls are shaking And no-one answers Though you keep running around and banging the doors And it seems strange There's no-one home You start to wonder "Who's making that noise if I'm up here all alone?" Then the pitch hits and you stop caring 'Cause what was piercing Is now controlled And there's no 'who' and no 'why' And there's no conflict You breathe it out, you let it go You start to sing And when you sing, the sound is gone And when you sing, the lights come on And then the doors all open wide And then the whole hall staggers out and sings along You rub your eyes They come closer It's a party
