2am
Deep night hour
2am (also 2 a.m. or 2 AM) is two o'clock in the morning—deep in the night when most people are asleep.
The hour carries connotations of insomnia, late-night confessions, poor decisions, or the solitude of being awake when others aren't: Nothing good happens after 2am.
A 2am text suggests something impulsive or intimate, sent when inhibitions are low.
