Lyrics

5.03 and sunrise, lights another day

Reflecting on the time (5:03 AM) and sunrise, starting a new day.

But in this empty bed of mine I roll the other way

Feeling the emptiness in bed, avoiding facing the reality of the absence.

Coz life don't feel just how it should since you had to leave

Expressing the emotional impact of the departure on life, things not feeling right.

Well no we can't come to the phone without a you and me...coz

Unable to answer the phone without the presence of the significant other.


I've been drunk on you since 11.17

Intoxicated emotionally since 11:17 AM, consumed by thoughts of the person.

12.32 I just see you staring back at me

Seeing the person in memories at 12:32, a strong connection even in absence.

2.05 I just can't hide the way you make me feel

Unable to conceal the intense emotions evoked by the person at 2:05.

But the hardest time, I'm ever getting through, is a quarter past you

The most challenging time to endure is a quarter past the person's departure.


9.08 I contemplate, ask the question why

Contemplating and questioning the reasons behind the departure at 9:08.

What could I do, just wanting to, keep you in my life

Desiring to keep the person in their life and struggling with the separation.

Wheels burnt that track, you won't look back, why'd you have to leave

Reference to the irreversible actions taken by the person, leaving no room to turn back.

I can't move on, I'm not that strong, I'm trying hard to be...but

Difficulty in moving on, acknowledging personal weakness in the face of the situation.


I've been drunk on you since 11.17

Continued emotional intoxication since 11:17 AM.

12.32 I just see you staring back at me

The persistent image of the person at 12:32, a haunting presence.

2.05 I just can't hide the way you make me feel

Struggling to hide the profound impact the person has on emotions at 2:05.

But the hardest time, I'm ever getting through, is a quarter past you

Reiterating that the most challenging time is a quarter past the person's departure.


I've been holding on, I know it's way too long

Acknowledging the prolonged struggle to let go and move forward.

It's hard enough, to sober up when I'm hanging over you

Highlighting the difficulty of sobriety when thoughts are consumed by the person.


So I'll just keep on drinking till 11.17

Using drinking as a coping mechanism until 11:17 AM, maintaining the connection.

12.32 gotta stop you, staring back at me

Forced to stop the cycle of memories at 12:32 for a moment of clarity.

2.05 I'll have some pride, forget the way I feel

Attempting to regain pride and forget emotions at 2:05.

But the hardest time, every time...

Repeating the theme that the most challenging time is every time.


I've been drunk on you since 11.17

Continuous emotional intoxication since 11:17 AM.

12.32 I just see you staring back at me

The persistent image of the person at 12:32, a haunting presence.

2.05 I just can't hide the way you make me feel

Struggling to hide the profound impact the person has on emotions at 2:05.

But the hardest time, I'm ever getting through, is a quarter past you

Reiterating that the most challenging time is a quarter past the person's departure.
