[Verse 1: Melo]
5:30 in the morning
Stems like the number is disconnected
Walking alone through the hustle and bustle of traffic
I stretch out my hand and try my hardest to catch the wind
But in the end it’s all the same
Go forward like this or it’s too many talk
Sprinkle salt on the wound, it can’t heal
Distant water can’t quench my thirst
I’m just this lucky, the first time we met
It was more than surprise, nonstop
Collect the memories and put them in a suitcase
I don’t have time to think, too many people are pushing me
The airport and the studio are my next destination
My happiness, fortune, suffering and rejoice, it all used to be you
But now nothing can break my concentration
My life is so beautiful
You sleep, I’ve never rested
My dad told me I’ve gotta work to go far
Gonna have a lotta bad bitches as a result

[Hook: Melo]
It’s 5:30 in the morning
The alarm that always reminds me to wake up
Last night’s movie that I didn’t finish
I don’t know what I’m doing
I don’t need to doubt what I’m doing anymore
I’ll act the rest of the movie that I didn’t finish
I don’t need the alarm to wake me up anymore
It’s 5:30 in the morning
[Verse 2: Melo]
The sunset outside, the empty balcony
One second ago, it was just your voice was still there
The delivery will always be a voiceless narrator
The outcome of deep love is mutual pain
I wrote a letter and put it in an envelope without a stamp
I told my future self I won’t accept mediocrity
I’m going to become famous
I’m going to be the biggest pearl in the shell
I’m not going to ask what happened anymore
It’s this boring and this emotional
I put a blank letter in the mailbox and turn around

[Hook: Melo]
It’s 5:30 in the morning
The alarm that always reminds me to wake up
Last night’s movie that I didn’t finish
I don’t know what I’m doing
I don’t need to doubt what I’m doing anymore
I’ll act the rest of the movie that I didn’t finish
I don’t need the alarm to wake me up anymore
It’s 5:30 in the morning
