Verse 1
Clock hits five, I’m already leaving,
Shed that week like a skin I’m peeling.
City wakes up with the neon breathing,
Heartbeat syncing with the bass I’m needing.
Step inside and the world turns hazy—
Bodies move like the night’s gone crazy.
I’m not tired, I’m just overdue
For a little escape and a better view.
Pre-Chorus
I feel the tension fall off my spine,
Glass in my hand and I’m rewinding time.
Every color’s running into every line—
Yeah, I’m alive tonight.
Chorus
Take me to the afterlight,
Where the clock stops spinning and the drinks feel right.
Where the beat hits louder than the thoughts I fight,
And I lose myself in the glow of the night.
We’re floating—
Higher than the stress we came here holding.
In the afterlight, we’re golden.
Yeah, the afterlight feels right.
Verse 2
Sweat on my skin and the room keeps bending,
I don’t care where the moment’s ending.
Laughs too loud, but the vibe’s ascending,
All those deadlines—yeah, they’re suspended.
Caught in a loop of the DJ’s choosing,
Nothing to win, nothing worth losing.
Just one night where the world stands still
And the only thing that matters is the way this feels.
Pre-Chorus
I feel the tension fall off my spine,
Glass in my hand and I’m rewinding time.
Every color’s running into every line—
Yeah, I’m alive tonight.
Chorus
Take me to the afterlight,
Where the clock stops spinning and the drinks feel right.
Where the beat hits louder than the thoughts I fight,
And I lose myself in the glow of the night.
We’re floating—
Higher than the stress we came here holding.
In the afterlight, we’re golden.
Yeah, the afterlight feels right.
Bridge (EDM Build)
Hands up—just breathe it in.
Let the week fall off your skin.
Let the rhythm pull you in—
Tonight we’re infinite, infinite.
Drop (Hook Line)
Afterlight, afterlight—
We come alive in the afterlight.
Outro
When the sun creeps in, I’ll pay the price,
But for now? I’m weightless, lost in lights.
Just one more song, one more drink, one more night…
In the afterlight.
