A song about isolation, loneliness, dissociation, and coldness.
Featured on John Maycumber's "String Theory" on WJCT-FM 89.9.
lyrics
3 am
Butterfly wings in a dusty box
Stained grout
Pack it up, pack it up
Monarch, orange and black
Busted pipes
Rough knuckles
It’s too cold for you here.
Can you hear me?
’Cause I don’t think I can hear myself
Do you know me?
Because I look like someone else
Can you feel me?
Or am I a ghost?
Do you love me?
We might just be fools,
But who knows?
3 am
Broken drawers and mismatching socks
Get out
Pack it up, pack it up
Go and never come back
Leave my life
Along with my troubles
It’s too dark for you, dear
Are you near me?
’Cause I’m not quite sure of where I am
Do you fear me?
Do you even know just who I am?
Will you wait for me?
If you go without me, I’ll understand
Will you stay for me?
I’m lonely, will you hold my hand?
3 am
I might just have to give in
To the endless Night
It’s too cold without you here.
It’s alright
When morning comes,
We will kill the Night.

I'm a big fan of Robin. His music comes from the heart, especially this album. His style is outstanding, and his music has really helped me out through some tough times. Keep doing what you're doing! Laurel Wagner
Robin, you've done it again. Great transitions. Chord progressions are bittersweet just like our beloved lemon boy. Vocals are spot-on. Lyrics are witty, clever, powerful, and heartfelt. Keep it up!! Laurel Wagner
Sidney has quickly become one of my favorite artists of all time. Love her sound, clever and youthful lyrics. It's great. Just listen to it. Laurel Wagner
