Lumiere Obscura - After Hours Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Neon signs flicker through the dusty glass
Learning secrets after the last customer passed
Analog dreams in this sacred space
Turning knobs until my mind's erased

[Pre-Chorus]
Old machines whisper their tales to me
In this sanctuary after 23:00
Your wisdom flows through patch cables and keys
Teaching me things I never knew

[Chorus]
After hours, when the world goes dark
After hours, that's when we make our art
Circuits flowing through my veins
Night school synthesis keeps me sane
After hours, that's where I belong
After hours, until the break of dawn

[Verse 2]
Vintage gear and coffee getting cold
Stories hidden in the circuits old
Every lesson's like a sacred code
Breaking free from what I've been told

[Bridge]
The city sleeps while we're awake
Creating sounds that make my soul break
In this shop, I found my way
Through the static and the decay

[Chorus]
After hours, when the world goes dark
After hours, that's when we make our art
Circuits flowing through my veins
Night school synthesis keeps me sane
After hours, that's where I belong
After hours, until the break of dawn

[Outro]
When morning comes, I'll fade away
But these midnight lessons are here to stay
