Lights Don’t Lie

[Intro – soft synth swell, heartbeat kick]

City lights flicker on my skin
like they’re reading my thoughts out loud.
Every color tastes like truth tonight,
and I can’t run from it anymore.

[Verse 1 – smooth R&B flow]

I see your face in every window,
even when you’re nowhere near.
The Uber lights, the late-night glow,
they whisper things I’m scared to hear.
I’m walking fast just to slow down,
my heartbeat trapped in double-time.
Your name hits harder than the bass,
I feel it drop inside my mind.

[Pre-Chorus – garage rhythm builds]

And I keep telling myself I’m fine,
but the streetlights know when I lie.
Every reflection exposes me,
every shadow says your name twice.

[Chorus – catchy, high-energy UKG hook]

’Cause the lights don’t lie,
they show me what I hide.
Every flicker says you’re still
burning up my mind.
And I can’t deny,
even when I try—
you’re the reason every night
still feels like sunrise.

[Verse 2 – rap section, tight flow]

Look—
I’ve been healing in half-beats,
learning from the concrete,
talking to the moon like
“why’s she still on repeat?”
I ghost my phone just to feel free,
but your memory tags me like IG.
No filter can fix what’s underneath—
the truth hits raw and violently.

I’m chasing futures with clean energy,
no baggage, no enemies—
but damn, your name got tenancy
in parts of me I can’t set free.

[Pre-Chorus – smooth R&B lift]

And I keep telling myself I’m fine,
but the streetlights know when I lie.

[Chorus – full garage drop]

Because the lights don’t lie,
they catch me every time.
Every shadow on the pavement
draws your outline.
And I can’t move on,
no matter what I try—
your ghost glows neon
in the corner of my eye.

[Bridge – trance pads rising]

Maybe love’s not supposed to fade,
maybe it just learns to change shape.
And maybe I’m not broken—
just rewired,
still burning,
still wired,
still alive.

[Final Chorus – massive, catchy, nightclub-round hook]

Lights don’t lie,
they tell on me every night.
Every memory’s a spark
I can’t turn off inside.
And even if you’re gone,
even if we’ve died—
the city keeps your rhythm
running through my life.

[Outro – soft synth fade]

Yeah…
the lights don’t lie.
But maybe that’s why
I still survive.
