After The Lights Lryics

🎵 Title: “After the Lights” Written in the style of The Weeknd (w/ ad-libs) [Verse 1] Midnight city got me feelin’ all alone (yeah) Neon dreams, but I’m colder than the chrome (so cold) Told her I’d be different, but I lied again (I lied) Heart full of Henny and a fountain pen (uh-huh) She want love but I just want a thrill (just a thrill) Diamonds on her neck, but her touch don’t feel real (nah) Said she’d never fall for a man like me (don’t fall) But I watch her break every time she leave (every time) [Pre-Chorus] I know I’m toxic, baby, I’m aware (I know) But I can’t stop, I’m caught up in the snare (trapped) It’s 4AM and I’m still in the chair (still here) Writing sins I’ll never share (never) [Chorus] After the lights go down (lights go down) You’ll find me in the shadows, lost in sound (lost) I don’t wanna feel right now (nah) I just need the rhythm, let it drown me out (let it drown) After the lights go down (go down) She only love me when I’m not around (never there) But I keep coming back somehow (why?) Yeah, I keep coming back somehow (back) [Verse 2] Smoke in my lungs, can’t breathe the truth (can’t breathe) Every night’s a rerun of my youth (on repeat) Fast life, but I’m stuck in slow motion (slow) Love’s just pain in a pretty potion (sip it) Voices in my head like a choir (choir) All screaming “baby, you’re a liar” (you a liar) But I can’t change, I was built like this (nah) Prayers don’t work when you live in sin (facts) [Pre-Chorus] I know she’s cryin’ on the bathroom floor (she cryin’) I left again, like I did before (ghost) I’ll text “I’m sorry,” then ask for more (cold) This love’s a game I can’t ignore (nah) [Chorus] After the lights go down (go down) You’ll find me in the shadows, lost in sound (lost in it) I don’t wanna feel right now (right now) I just need the rhythm, let it drown me out (drown me out) After the lights go down (go down) She only love me when I’m not around (not around) But I keep coming back somehow (somehow) Yeah, I keep coming back somehow (ooh yeah) [Bridge] (Yeah) Heartbreak king, that’s my crown (my crown) Fallin’ fast, can’t touch the ground (can’t) She say I’m the drug, she fiendin’ now (she need it) But I’m the silence after sound (gone) [Outro – Spoken/Soft falsetto] Can’t love me… Not like this… But you do anyway, don’t you? (Yeah… you do anyway...)
