Afterglow

[Verse 1] Sweet poison in my veins tonight Memories of you won't let me sleep right Your touch was like a desert wind Blowing through the cracks that let you in Every promise that you couldn't keep Left me dancing on the edge so deep [Pre-Chorus] The city lights blur into gold As I remember what we told Each other in the dark of night Before the dawn revealed your lies [Chorus] In the afterglow, in the afterglow Where broken dreams still softly flow Your ghost still haunts these streets I know But I'm dancing through the afterglow Through the afterglow, through the afterglow Where pain turns into disco gold I'm stronger than you'll ever know Dancing through the afterglow [Verse 2] Ancient melodies in my mind Echo through the spaces left behind Your demons became mine to bear Until I learned I couldn't save you there The studio still holds your scent Mixed with all the words we never meant [Bridge] Every night club feels like home Where bass drowns out how much I've grown Your love was sweet but left me cold Now I'm writing my own story bold [Chorus] In the afterglow, in the afterglow Where broken dreams still softly flow Your ghost still haunts these streets I know But I'm dancing through the afterglow Through the afterglow, through the afterglow Where pain turns into disco gold I'm stronger than you'll ever know Dancing through the afterglow [Outro] Sweet poison couldn't kill my soul These scars just made me more whole Watch me rise above it all Through this neon-painted fall In the afterglow
