3 AM Convenience

[Chorus] Three AM, the city's asleep But I'm wide awake, promises to keep Fluorescent lights hum a lonely tune Beneath the cold, indifferent moon Just another night, another mile Searching for a reason, just a little while [Verse] Streetlights paint the wet asphalt gold Stories in the shadows, brave and bold Headlights cut through the hazy air Each one a soul with burdens to bear I see faces in the passing cars Lost in their own silent wars [Pre-Chorus] This quiet hour, it holds a strange grace In this deserted, lonely space A vending machine's soft, gentle glow Where weary wanderers come and go [Chorus] Three AM, the city's asleep But I'm wide awake, promises to keep Fluorescent lights hum a lonely tune Beneath the cold, indifferent moon Just another night, another mile Searching for a reason, just a little while [Verse] The clerk behind the counter, tired eyes Seen it all beneath these city skies He stocks the shelves, a silent, steady hand Part of this forgotten, midnight land I buy a coffee, black and strong Trying to remember where I belong [Bridge] This emptiness, it echoes deep inside Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide Just the hum of the fridge, a steady beat On this deserted, lonely street Waiting for the dawn to break through A brand new day, something fresh and new [Chorus] Three AM, the city's asleep But I'm wide awake, promises to keep Fluorescent lights hum a lonely tune Beneath the cold, indifferent moon Just another night, another mile Searching for a reason, just a little while [Outro]
