[Is_MAX_MODE: MAX](MAX) [QUALITY: MAX](MAX) [REALISM: MAX](MAX) [REAL_INSTRUMENTS: MAX](MAX)[Verse 1] Standing at the front door, keys shaking in my hand, Porch light still on... damn, this wasn't in the plan. Curtain moved a little, I swear I saw your face, Now I'm frozen on the steps, trying to get my story straight. Phone full of missed calls, almost morning outside, Told you I was working... now I gotta sell that lie. Take one deep breath, straighten up my clothes, Check myself for anything I brought back home. Hotel scent still hanging somewhere on my skin, I'm thinking, "Can she smell it the second I walk in?" Reach for the doorknob, then I pull my hand away, Running through every word I know I'm 'bout to say. Maybe you're asleep... Maybe everything's cool... Maybe you ain't noticed that I broke every rule. But that light through the window got me thinking you awake, And the longer I stand here, the harder it is to fake. I finally turn the key... Hear the lock click slow. One thought running through my head— Damn... How much does she know? [Chorus] What could happen after that late night creep? (What could happen?) What could happen after that late night creep? (Where you been?) What could happen after that late night creep? (She might know...) What could happen after that late night creep? (Oh, no...) [Verse 2] I step through the doorway, You barely look my way, You moving way too normal For this time of day. You ask me, "Long night?" I say, "Yeah, work was rough." You just nod real slow, Like that answer ain't enough. Usually you got questions, Usually you come close, Tonight you keep your distance, And that's what scares me most. Then you ask what time they called, Something you never do, I answer way too quickly, Now I'm watching you. You pick up your phone, Set it right back down, Give me that little look Like you been checking around. I'm trying not to stare, Trying not to overthink, But every little thing you do Got me standing on the brink. You ain't said I'm lying, You ain't called me out, But now I'm starting to feel What this silence is about. And one thought keeps getting louder Every second that you're near— You know something... I can feel it. I just don't know what you heard. [Chorus] What could happen after that late night creep? (What could happen?) What could happen after that late night creep? (Where you been?) What could happen after that late night creep? (She might know...) What could happen after that late night creep? (Oh, no...) [Outro | Dramatic Build] What could happen after that late night creep When you look past my face Like you're already free? Leaving me... What could happen after that late night creep When the light in your eyes Won't shine on me? What could happen after that late night creep When you grab that **OVERNIGHT BAG** (Your overnight bag...) And your **HANDS DON'T EVEN SHAKE** (They don't even shake...) What could happen after that late night creep? Now I'm watching you go, And it's on me... on me. [Outro Tag | Strip Back] That suite... way too late... Late night creep. And you don't gotta raise your voice... I heard you. I heard you. What could happen After that late night creep?
