silhouettes as they dance slow
Didn't think it'd be him though
Can you see me through the window
You fell asleep so early, those drinks they had you swirling
Then your phone goes off, and I feel my throat drop
It's almost 2:30, who's calling so early
Saw him break through your back door
Shattered glass on your mom's floor
It's almost 2:30, who's calling so early
Tremble my way through, these words I said to you
Been a while motherfucker but I'm here tonight
Threw a glance, saw his pants, two hours past midnight
So I stumble out your back door, with the glass from your mom's floor
And I leave in a hurry, those sirens whirling
Then my phone goes off, and I feel my throat drop
It's almost 2:30, who's calling so early
Tremble my way through, these words I said to you
Think I need another minute, another motherfucking minute
Think I need another minute, another motherfucking minute
Been a while but I'm here tonight
The lyrics of Scum Shots' song "2am" paint a vivid and intense scene of a late-night encounter. The first verse sets the stage, with the persona asking if someone can see them through the window. The silhouettes dancing slowly suggest a sensual and secretive atmosphere. However, the persona is surprised to find that it is not who they expected.
The second verse reveals that the person the persona is referring to fell asleep early and had been drinking. Suddenly, their phone rings and the persona's throat drops, indicating a sense of anxiety or fear. The time is around 2:30 am, and the persona wonders who could be calling at such an early hour. The person they are with leaves hastily, guided by a voice telling the persona to quickly leave as well. The persona witnesses the person breaking through their back door, leaving shattered glass on their mom's floor. The sense of urgency and danger intensifies as the second verse ends with the repeated question of who could be calling so early.
In the chorus, the persona expresses their fear and trembles as they try to communicate with someone, possibly the person they were with. The repetition of the phrase "tremble my way through, these words I said to you" indicates the persona's struggle to convey their emotions or thoughts under the tense circumstances.
The final verse adds a new layer to the story. The persona acknowledges that it has been a while since they have seen the person they are with, but they have returned that night. The mention of glancing at the person's pants suggests some level of intimacy or familiarity. However, a sense of urgency returns as the persona stumbles out of the back door, taking a piece of shattered glass from the mom's floor with them. As they leave in a hurry, their own phone rings, evoking a similar feeling of dread. The repetition of the question of who is calling so early underscores the ongoing mystery and suspense.
The closing lines of the song, "Think I need another minute, another motherfucking minute, been a while but I'm here tonight," leave the listener with a lingering sense of anticipation and uncertainty. The persona seems to want more time to understand the situation and their own feelings. The repetition of the phrase also hints at a conflicted sense of reuniting with someone after a long absence.
Overall, "2am" conveys a sense of danger, anxiety, and uncertainty in a late-night encounter. The lyrics create a suspenseful atmosphere and leave room for interpretation, allowing listeners to engage with their own emotions and experiences.

Can you see me through the window
Can you perceive my existence from outside the window
silhouettes as they dance slow
Shadowy figures moving slowly in a graceful manner
Didn't think it'd be him though
Unanticipated surprise to find him present
Can you see me through the window
Can you perceive my existence from outside the window
You fell asleep so early, those drinks they had you swirling
You became intoxicated and fell asleep quickly
Then your phone goes off, and I feel my throat drop
Your phone receives a notification and I feel a sudden anxiety
It's almost 2:30, who's calling so early
It's nearly 2:30 AM, questioning the reason for an early phone call
You left in such a hurry , that voice told me to scurry
You departed hastily, an inner voice urging me to move quickly
Saw him break through your back door
Witnessed him forcefully entering through your rear entrance
Shattered glass on your mom's floor
Broken glass scattered on your mother's floor
It's almost 2:30, who's calling so early
It's nearly 2:30 AM, questioning the reason for an early phone call
Tremble my way through, these words I said to you
Quivering, I cautiously utter these words to you
Been a while motherfucker but I'm here tonight
It has been some time, but I am present tonight
Threw a glance, saw his pants, two hours past midnight
Cast a quick glance and noticed his trousers, it is already two hours past midnight
So I stumble out your back door, with the glass from your mom's floor
Hastily exit through your rear entrance, clutching the broken glass from your mother's floor
And I leave in a hurry, those sirens whirling
Departs quickly, the sound of sirens intensifying
Then my phone goes off, and I feel my throat drop
Subsequently, my phone receives a notification and I experience a sinking feeling
It's almost 2:30, who's calling so early
It's nearly 2:30 AM, questioning the reason for an early phone call
Tremble my way through, these words I said to you
Quivering, I cautiously utter these words to you
Think I need another minute, another motherfucking minute
Believe I require additional time, one more crucial minute
Think I need another minute, another motherfucking minute
Believe I require additional time, one more crucial minute
Been a while but I'm here tonight
It has been some time, but I am present tonight
