12 AM a time of quiet No one stirs, no one speaks The first hour of the day, Today becomes tomorrow And no oneβs aware
12 AM some people sleep But some people are restless, Unable to sleep
Some are chained to the tears of heartbreak Or held hostage by the demons in their head Try and try as they might, they will be prisoners of darkness and sorrow In the night
Some are too excited to sleep A moment of pleasure, A moment to remember It comes closer as each hour passes As the day of the event finally comes
12 AM, the hour of rest, sorrow and excitement The first hour of the day, The hour of emotions or the hour of sleep
