3 AM
Lyrics
My eyes are open, staring straight at the ceiling
Time is ticking and I can't even notice it passing me by
When all of my thoughts are just coming to life
Try not to be embarrassed, failure comes before success
But all my failures are the very things I try to suppress
Asking myself, could I ever be enough?
'Cause every heartbreak makes me feel like I've had enough
I think I'm prеtty but sometimes I wanna change
I try not to comparе but now look at me
Scrolling through every page, hoping one day that could be me, and
All of these things are the things that cross my mind
All of these thoughts are the ones that pass me by
When I'm staring at my phone, thinking I should be asleep
But instead I'm looking up, counting all these little sheep and
All of these things are the things that cross my mind
All of these thoughts are the ones that pass me by
That pass me by
That pass me by
That pass me by at 3am
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da, mm
I get tired of trying to play the role of perfect
When all I am's the understudy of imperfect
When people say, "I think you're the best"
I think, "Would they love me in all of my mess"
They say smile more 'cause smiling is contagious
But all I'm coming down with is a case of sadness
Faith will be my cure
But some days are just harder to lift my hands, and
All of these things are the things that cross my mind
All of these thoughts are the ones that pass me by
When I'm staring at my phone, thinking I should be asleep
But instead I'm looking up, counting all these little sheep and
All of these things are the things that cross my mind
All of these thoughts are the ones that pass me by
That pass me by
That pass me by
That pass me by
Then I hear a voice
That quiets my soul
And drowns out the noise
And says to me
"You don't have to fight this alone
Joy is in your morning, too
I'm giving you all you need
Take a deep breath
The answer is rest
Know that all things
Won't seem so bad in the morning
I will show you the good that's ahead"
'Cause all of these things that keep you up at night
All of these things that take you on a ride
Don't let them hurt you 'cause they don't deserve your time
Your heart was made for more than all of these words
So all of these things that keep you up at night (All of these things, yeah)
All of these are the thoughts that will pass by (Pass by)
That will pass by
That will pass by
That will pass by at 3am
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da, mm (All these things that cross my mind)
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da (That cross my mind)
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da, mm (At 3am)
My eyes are open, staring straight at the ceiling
Time is ticking and I can't even notice it passing me by
When all of my thoughts are just coming to life

Asking myself, could I ever be enough?
'Cause every heartbreak makes me feel like I've had enough
I think I'm prеtty but sometimes I wanna change
I try not to comparе but now look at me
Scrolling through every page, hoping one day that could be me, and
All of these things are the things that cross my mind
All of these thoughts are the ones that pass me by
When I'm staring at my phone, thinking I should be asleep
But instead I'm looking up, counting all these little sheep and
All of these things are the things that cross my mind
All of these thoughts are the ones that pass me by
That pass me by
That pass me by
That pass me by at 3am
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
