Song
Midnight Mirage
Lyrics
Your shadow dances close in the neon’s lazy glow,
Two strangers in a crowd, but your eyes scream, “I know.”
You spin a lie, say you’re leavin’, but your heels move slow,
Lipstick stains on your glass, and the DJ drops it low…
Say you’re done, but your fingers trace the edge of my sleeve,
Whisper, “Not tonight,” then you bite your lip at me.
We’re a paradox, yeah, a fire dressed in freeze—
If this is wrong, baby, wrong’s where I wanna be.
Ride the rhythm, ride the silence, ride this ache,
(Ooh, let it break)
Pull me closer just to push me all away.
Ride the line between the truth and our mistakes,
Midnight mirage—I’m still chasin’ what you make…
Your phone buzzes loud, but you crush it with a stare,
Draggin’ me to the floor like the world’s burnin’ there.
Laughin’ at my jokes, but your nails dig my arm bare,
We’re a storm in a glass, darlin’, tip it if you dare.
Now the taxi’s here, but you’re frozen in the door,
Say you’ll stay, then you flinch at the word “more.”
Is this love or just the wine? I don’t care anymore—
Paint me guilty, let the city be our courtroom floor.
Midnight mirage, fade to nothin’ with the dawn,
But your ghost’s in my sheets, hummin’ our reckless song.
Ride it… ride it… till the memories are gone…
Fade to breathy vocals and a lone synth’s mournful thrum.
