2AM is a dance song. Pure and simple with a twist of anxiety mixed in. Anxiety. I love it.
The Sunset Sky music site is live – not finished, but live.
Every now and then I wake up in the middle of the night and think about things – too much. I have no idea why. It doesn’t always happen, but enough that I wanted to write a dance song about it. In the middle of the night, there is nothing you can do and the worry seems so needless, yet so important. The funny thing is, whatever is being obsessed over can usually be resolved during the day, but your brain wants it resolved RIGHT now and goes over and over every single option. Drives me nuts. Here’s the track – it’s a good one.
Dance song 2AM is one of the best tracks I’ve put together. I’m getting more proficient at mixing and mastering. I’m still learning the ins and outs of proper compression and there are some EQ issues that crop up, but for the most part the tracks are starting to sound more polished. I just make one or two stupid mistakes on each, rather than the usual myriad.
Dance Song 2AM – Lyrics
it seems like 2am
don’t ask just who i am
or even what it means to me
it feels so wrong i cannot think
here i am at night
it doesn’t feel so right
the voice inside my head will
never die down stay still
im up at 2am again
i cannot think at all
why the fuck am i here
what is going on
deep into the sky
I stop wondeting why
the sun will be up soon enough
and the racing thoughts might die
when the dawn comes up
I pretend the ghosts aren’t there
go about the day like
well i really dont care
im up at 2am again
i cannot think at all
why the fuck am i here
what is going on
i cannot sleep anymore
toss and turn all night
it’s all on my mind baby
what the hell is life
please call administration
i can’t handle this
goin down in flames
sweating through the tears
…
over and over why cant i stop thinking
i have to ask do you ever sleep at all
because if i’m only dreaming…
can you or will you catch my fall
