Echo Lumin - Afterglow Lyrics

[Intro]
Lost in the afterglow, yeah
These pills got me feeling so low, yeah
Studio lights flickering slow
Memories I can't let go

[Verse 1]
3 AM in Manchester rain
Raven's perfume mixed with cocaine
Middle Eastern strings in my brain
Making music through the pain
Crossed too many lines tonight
Your touch feels wrong but so right
Mixing potions in the booth
Dancing with a twisted truth

[Chorus]
Caught in your afterglow
Beautiful poison flows
Through my veins, through my soul
Can't tell what's real anymore
In your afterglow
Watch these demons grow
Studio turned to quicksand
Can't escape your command

[Verse 2]
F*cked up in this leather chair
Purple shadows everywhere
Your whispers like a toxic prayer
Tell me that you'll always care
But we both know it's all fake
Just another give and take
Trading trauma for a high
Watching inspiration die, yeah

[Bridge]
Trapped between your lies and mine
Sniffing lines to pass the time
Every beat becomes a crime
Every hook, a paradigm
Of what we could've been
If we weren't so obscene
Now these samples on repeat
Mirror how you're haunting me

[Chorus]
Caught in your afterglow
Beautiful poison flows
Through my veins, through my soul
Can't tell what's real anymore
In your afterglow
Watch these demons grow
Studio turned to quicksand
Can't escape your command

[Outro]
Lost in the afterglow
These memories come and go
Like shadows on studio walls
Watch me as I fall
In your afterglow
Beautiful poison shows
What we could've been
Before the darkness set in
