After midnight

AFTER MIDNIGHT

Verse 1 — melodic

I see your name light up my phone,

But I’m better off alone.

Every memory hits like rain,

Dancing slowly down my windowpane.

You said forever, then you disappeared,

Left me with the words I never said.

Now I’m learning how to breathe again,

Even with your ghost inside my head.

Pre-Chorus

And I know, I know,

Some things never stay.

But tonight, tonight,

I’m finding my own way.

Chorus

After midnight, I come alive,

No more running, no more lies.

You had my heart, but not my soul,

I lost you just to find control.

If the darkness calls my name,

I’ll turn it into a flame.

After midnight, watch me rise—

You won’t see me looking back this time.

Verse 2 — rap

Yeah,

I put the pain in a notebook, turned scars into sentences,

Every little heartbreak became evidence.

You wanted the old me, but he couldn’t survive,

Had to bury that version just to keep me alive.

I was stuck in the cycle, replaying the scene,

Wondering what I could’ve done, what it all could’ve been.

Now I’m done with the blame, done chasing your shadow,

Built myself from the pieces you left on the floor.

Bridge — dark/whispered

Don’t wake me up…

I like it here.

Where nobody knows

What I’m thinking.

Where your voice gets quiet…

And mine gets louder.

Final Chorus

After midnight, I come alive,

No more running, no more lies.

You had my heart, but not my soul,

I lost you just to find control.

If the darkness calls my name,

I’ll turn it into a flame.

After midnight, watch me rise—

You won’t see me looking back this time.

Outro

Maybe love was never meant to stay,

Maybe goodbye was just another way

To find the person underneath the pain…

After midnight,

I breathe again.
