Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And, where have you been?
Where have you been?
Gave it up again because you always win
Feel so insecure the way we're leaving it
Break me down again to get you high
Bring me closer just to say goodbye
I think it's time breathing and I call it truce
Meet me halfway
Neck tied tightly by the noose
All of these memories hide
Wait 'til I lay my head down and then they come alive
Wrestle myself through the night
Wonder whose arms are holding you tight
Wanna be back in your bed watching
Sailor Moon, playing PS2 all afternoon
Where I wanna be, it's true
All I wanna see is you
All I wanna be is you
And I don't wanna die knowing that you'll be alive
Knowing that you'll be alright with some other guy
Maybe this rope tied too tight
I think it's time breathing and I call it truce
Meet me half way
Neck tied tightly by the noose
I think it's time breathing and I call it truce
Meet me half way
Neck tied tightly by the noose
It's 4am
The lyrics of "4AM" by Familypet explore the feelings of loneliness and insecurity that come with a failing relationship. The singer is alone at 4am, wondering where their partner has been. The relationship appears to be one-sided, with one partner consistently winning the upper hand. The singer feels insecure about the way they are leaving it and is constantly broken down to get their partner high. They want to call a truce and meet their partner halfway, but it seems impossible when their neck is tightly tied by the noose, which represents the suffocating feeling of being in a toxic relationship.
The memories of the past are painful and haunting for the singer; they wait until they lay their head down to be overwhelmed by them. They struggle through the night, wondering who is holding their partner tight. There is a longing to go back to the happy times when they would spend afternoons in their partner's bed watching Sailor Moon and playing PS2. All the singer wants is to see and be with their partner, and the fear of them being happy with someone else is unbearable. The song ends with the singer calling a truce and asking to meet halfway, but the noose is still tightening around their neck.
Overall, "4AM" is a powerful and emotional song that delves into the impact of a toxic relationship on the mental health of an individual. It highlights the struggles of breaking away from a relationship where one partner holds all the cards, and the fear of being alone can lead to being trapped and suffocated.
