There's actually a genetic bias on it. It can be overridden, but you'll always feel a bit burnt out from it. It also changes with age (teenagers are the latest, getting earlier as you age.
As a night person who has to wake up at 6am, I can absolutely confirm. I'm always tired.
I'm the same way. If I fall asleep at 10pm but wake up at 6am I'm absolutely miserable for the first hour, but if I go to sleep at 2am and wake up at 10am I'm refreshed and in a good mood most of the time. I'm 30 and it hasn't gotten any better with age yet.
Fuck mornings I hate them so much.
44 and still this way 2am-10am is pretty much my dream schedule.
Unfortunately I have a child.
I have to wake up early too. The good part is I don't even remember the first hour of work and once I'm awake I only have to work for 7 more hours.
Edit: nevermind, I can't math.
Yeah no matter what time I go to bed, if I have to wake up before 8 in the morning I'll be tired. I'm just not built for early mornings
For anyone curious about it, here are some sources.

I had to get up at 05:30 during my teenage years to get to school in time, which was horrible. If I slept in, I could easily sleep til noon or even later. Now that I'm older, I usually wake up around 08:00, even on weekends.
Til I'm still going through my teenage years. I'm straight up nocturnal now. I wasn't as a teenager.
