[Verse 1] Even with daylight, the night keeps its mask Alley-way neon aftertaste still stains the air No words between us, yet we walk together Somehow that alone already feels enough Sneaker rhythms slip a little out of sync A laugh escapes beneath convenience-store lights Phone battery glowing red, on the brink But this afterglow refuses to cut off ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] Sleepy eyes, but I don’t want to head home The street is quiet, my heart plays loud Traffic light lingers a second too long— Even that pause feels just right tonight ⸻ [Chorus] AFTERLOOP, keep it slow Empty city starts to flow Slurping dawn-ramen on the go That last track’s hook still looping low Stay loose, don’t explain Words always land a bit plain Yet inside this shared silence Meaning rings out, crystal-clear ⸻ [Verse 2] A trace of eyeshadow still hangs on Mint gum can’t out-run the fatigue Yet somehow we feel brim-full Eyes meet, no words needed at all We don’t have to unpack today By tomorrow it will fade away Still, it surely happened, right? Etched inside this beat tonight ⸻ [Bridge] Faces wrapped in steam, laid bare That hush between us pulled me through A night that belonged to no one Whose dawn we split in two ⸻ [Final Chorus] AFTERLOOP, one more round Sleepless grooves keep sounding out At the city’s seams, somehow I feel we finally synced up now Stay loose, don’t explain We’re fine without any words Even if the ramen cools down Today is surely a good loop
