The band performed in the local college scene traveling up and down the coast looking for gigs to play. After the band recorded some demos with Jerry Harrison, a former member of the Talking Heads and Modern Lovers, 2AM Club played a now-legendary four month residency they called "Tiny Porno" at the Derby in Los Angeles, and word quickly spread that it was the place to be. They played the school's band during the Pretty Little Liars episode "There's No Place Like Homecoming", performing "Worry About You" and "Make You Mine" among others.
Only For Me
2AM Club Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Used to look cute watching the TV
Used to lay there with wet hair
After the shower picking what to wear
But now you're dressing up for somebody else
Looking through my glass as the ice melts
Looking at the past just won't help
I just don't know how the chips all fell
Maybe 'cause I didn't follow through
Gave love I didn't follow suit
How you'd say "I'll always follow you"
I remember when it was
Only for me
Only for me
Only for me
Ain't that how it's supposed to be
Only for me
Only for me
Ain't that how it's supposed to be
I remember when it used to be fair
No games just truth or dare
No shame you used to care
You gave the goosebumps I don't wanna share
But now you're giving them to somebody else
Watching TV on somebody's couch
Blouse on the floor in somebody's house
I just don't know how it all went South
Maybe 'cause I got down to much
Too many too down to touch
But with you I never gave enough
I remember when it was
Only for me
Only for me
Only for me
Ain't that how it's supposed to be
Only for me
Only for me
But you know that I'll go on and
Wander 'til I get somewhere
Wander like I just don't care
I'll wander knowing it's not fair
I'll wander, look look looking
Wander 'til I get somewhere
Wander like I just don't care
I'll wander knowing it's not fair
I'll wander, look look looking
I'll wander, 'til I find someone
But it's just not you so I'm just not done
I could make a million calls to new tongues
I could find a million girls, I want one
You could draw a million lines in gold sand
I could walk across and hope to slow dance
A million love letters now turned to dust
And I remember when it was
Only for me
Only for me
Only for me
Ain't that how it's supposed to be
Only for me
Yeah
'Cause I remember when it was
Only for me
Only for me
Only for me
Ain't that how it's supposed to be
Only for me
Only for me
And you know that I'll go
Wander 'til I get somewhere
Wander like I just don't care
I'll wander knowing it's not fair
I'll wander, look look looking
Wander 'til I get somewhere
Like I just don't care
I'll wander knowing it's not fair
I'll wander, look look looking
I'll wander, 'til I find someone
But it's just not you so I'm just not done
I could make a million calls to new tongues
I could find a million girls, I want one
Only for me
Ain't that how it's supposed to be
Only for me
Only for me
Ain't that how it's supposed to be
2AM Club's song Only For Me is about a person who reminisces about a time when a relationship was easy, fair, and honest. The singer remembers how their partner used to care for them and the relationship was only meant for the two of them. However, things have since changed, and the partner is dressing up for someone else and giving another person the goosebumps that they should be exclusively receiving. The singer doesn't know how they got to that point, but they suspect that they didn't follow through with their promise to love in the same way that their partner did.
The singer acknowledges that it's not fair that they are wandering off to look for someone else, knowing that their heart still belongs to the previous partner. They say that they could find a million girls or make a million calls to new tongues, but they only want that one person. The song ends with a repetition of the chorus, emphasizing that the relationship was supposed to be only for them, but now it's not.

I remember when it used to be easy
Life was simpler and everything just fell into place
Used to look cute watching the TV
I could just be myself around you and still be adorable
Used to lay there with wet hair
I felt comfortable and at ease with you; I didn't have to impress or put on a show
After the shower picking what to wear
Even little things like what clothes to put on felt effortless and fun
But now you're dressing up for somebody else
You're trying too hard to impress someone who isn't me
Looking through my glass as the ice melts
Watching everything we built melt away and trying to hold on to the past
Looking at the past just won't help
We can't fix the present by dwelling on the past
I just don't know how the chips all fell
I don't understand how we fell apart and lost what we had
Maybe 'cause I didn't follow through
Perhaps I didn't put enough effort into our relationship
Gave love I didn't follow suit
I loved you, but didn't reciprocate everything you gave me
How you'd say "I'll always follow you"
You promised to support me through thick and thin
I remember when it was
I reminisce about the time when things were simple and easy
Only for me
Our love was exclusive to each other, and that's how it should be
Ain't that how it's supposed to be
Isn't that the way love is supposed to work? Monogamous and devoted?
I remember when it used to be fair
We used to treat each other with mutual respect and kindness
No games just truth or dare
We were honest and playful, no manipulation or hurtful behavior
No shame you used to care
We genuinely cared for each other, with no guilt or hiding
You gave the goosebumps I don't wanna share
You used to make me feel special and excited, but now those feelings are gone
Watching TV on somebody's couch
You're snuggled up with someone else, not me
Blouse on the floor in somebody's house
Your clothes are scattered somewhere that I'm not
I just don't know how it all went South
I can't comprehend when everything went wrong and our love became ruined
Maybe 'cause I got down to much
Perhaps I became too needy or dependent on you
Too many too down to touch
I may have been too hard to reach and didn't try to change
But with you I never gave enough
I did not give as much love and attention as you deserved
Wander 'til I get somewhere
I'll keep exploring life and searching for true love
Wander like I just don't care
I'll move forward without worrying about the opinions of others
I'll wander knowing it's not fair
I know that my actions will hurt someone, but I need to put myself first
I'll wander, look look looking
I'll keep searching and exploring, never settling down
But it's just not you so I'm just not done
I'm not over you and am still searching for what we had
I could make a million calls to new tongues
I could have flings and meaningless relationships, but that's not what I want
I could find a million girls, I want one
I could date so many people, but at the end of the day, I just want you
You could draw a million lines in gold sand
You could make endless promises, but none of them matter if they aren't kept
I could walk across and hope to slow dance
I could take risks and hope for a future with you, but it's uncertain
A million love letters now turned to dust
Our love no longer exists and is now just a memory
And you know that I'll go
You understand that I will continue searching for love, but without you
