Verse 1
There’s silver on the ground tonight
like the moon came down too soon
The air is thick with second thoughts
and half-forgotten tunes
Your jacket smells like open roads
and something burned before
Every place we’ve never been
is knocking at the door
Pre-Chorus
The city hums in broken chords
a tired electric prayer
I feel your pulse inside the noise
like we’re not really there
Chorus
We walk slow through the afterglow
where nothing’s safe or sound
All our names fall off our backs
and hit the ground
If this is just a moment passing through
let it stay
There’s silver on the ground tonight
and we’re walking anyway
Verse 2
Your smile cuts the neon light
into a softer shape
It bends the dark around our feet
so we can slip away
A dog is barking at the stars
like it knows what’s wrong
The night keeps spinning patiently
to see who’ll stay too long
Pre-Chorus
Time is chewing on its words
like it forgot the truth
We lean against the future
like it’s something we can use
Chorus
We walk slow through the afterglow
where nothing’s safe or sound
All our fears are falling loose
and rolling down
If love’s just another passing truth
let it stay
There’s silver on the ground tonight
and we’re walking anyway
Bridge
If tomorrow finds us empty-handed
or drunk on borrowed light
We’ll say we heard the world breathe once
and that was enough tonight
No maps, no fixed direction
just a rhythm we can trust
A little faith in motion
and a promise made of dust
Chorus (extended)
We walk slow through the afterglow
past the edge of doubt
Every silence starts to speak
when we don’t talk
I don’t need a clearer sign than you
right here
There’s silver on the ground tonight
and it’s shining everywhere
Outro
The moon pulls back into its place
like nothing ever fell
But we still carry fragments
of the spell
