[Verse 1] You’re leaning in with a half-drunk smile We’re pretending like this love’s on trial I see the truth in your wandering eyes But I’m still holding on like it’s all right We dance through smoke in designer pain Kiss like fire, knowing it won’t remain Every word’s a goodbye in disguise But your kiss make me feel so alive --- [Pre-Chorus] You say this can’t go on But I’m already too far gone If this is just one night Let's let this fire burn bright --- [Chorus] You’re the after party I don’t wanna leave Even if it’s killing me underneath A lonely match that can't be sparked But I still choose you in the dark And if this love was built to break I’ll take the fall for what we make You were never meant to stay But I still give you all of me anyway --- [Verse 2] Everyone’s fading, but I just see you Wrapped in regret like it’s nothing new I hear the warning in every whisper Telling me I should have never kissed her We lie like this was meant to be But baby, I know what you don’t see If we can't have happily ever after Then let's make this our greatest chapter [Chorus] You’re the after party I don’t wanna leave Even if it’s killing me underneath A lonely match that can't be sparked But I still choose you in the dark And if this love was built to break I’ll take the fall for what we make You were never meant to stay But I still give you all of me anyway --- [Bridge] Some love’s not made for daylight But we shine in the break of midnight And if this is how the story ends Then I’d still write it all over again [Beat Breakdown] --- [Final Chorus] You’re the after party I don’t wanna leave Even if it’s killing me underneath A lonely match that can't be sparked But I still choose you in the dark And if this love was built to break I’ll take the fall for what we make You were never meant to stay But I still give you all of me anyway --- [Outro – fading] We both know it ends this way… But I’d do it again any day.
