**[Intro]**
Yeah...
Three A.M., headlights blur through the blinds,
Got a war in my head and I'm running out of time.
Yeah...
I don't know who I'm fighting anymore.
**[Verse 1]**
Got a black heart beating in a cold room,
Shadows on the wall and they all know the truth.
Everybody sees the smile, nobody sees the damage,
I've been hiding all my pain inside a pretty package.
I don't sleep much, I just stare at the ceiling,
Tryna figure out if what I feel is really feeling.
I've been drowning in thoughts that I never say,
'Cause every time I speak, they just fade away.
I've got scars where my trust used to be,
Got ghosts in the mirror staring back at me.
And I swear every night when the lights go dead,
There's a thousand different voices screaming in my head.
**[Pre-Chorus]**
And they say,
"Don't let 'em see you break,
Don't let 'em see you bleed."
But I've been breaking quietly,
And nobody noticed me.
**[Chorus]**
**The devil on my shoulder said I need to be quiet,**
Said the world don't care about a soul that's trying.
He kept feeding me lies 'til I started buying,
Now I'm standing in the dark while my whole world is dying.
The devil on my shoulder said I need to be quiet,
Bury every tear and deny that I'm crying.
But there's a fire in my chest that I can't keep hiding,
And I don't think I'll survive if I keep staying silent.
**[Verse 2]**
I've been walking through hell with a smile on my face,
Trying to outrun all the pain I can't erase.
Every memory's a blade and it's cutting too deep,
And the monsters I fight never let me sleep.
Mama said, "Baby, just keep your head high,"
But it's hard when you're learning how to die inside.
I got anger in my veins and regret in my lungs,
And a thousand unsaid words sitting on my tongue.
I've been praying to a God I can't seem to find,
While the devil keeps renting out space in my mind.
And I know that I'm lost, but I'm too far gone,
So I write these songs hoping somebody listens on.
**[Bridge]**
If I disappear tonight,
Would anybody notice?
Would anybody care?
Or would I just become another ghost
Floating through the air?
**[Final Chorus]**
**The devil on my shoulder said I need to be quiet,**
Said nobody's coming and there's no use trying.
He kept building up my fears while I sat there hiding,
Watching every part of me slowly start dying.
The devil on my shoulder said I need to be quiet,
But I'm sick of pretending and tired of lying.
If I fall apart tonight, at least I'm not hiding,
'Cause the loudest kind of pain is the pain that's silent.
**[Outro]**
Three A.M.
Still staring at the ceiling.
Still fighting.
Still breathing.
Maybe that's enough.
