    "text": "[Verse 1]\nStreetlights melt in silver rain\nYour name glows on the windowpane\nHalf of me says let it die\nHalf still reaches for the light\nCity hums like a tired prayer\nSmoke and gold in the midnight air\nI can feel what we became\nLike a fire that forgot its flame\n\n[Chorus]\nIn the afterglow, afterglow\nWe burn slow where the lost hearts go\nYou and I in the violet smoke\nStill alive in the afterglow\nAfterglow, afterglow\nDon’t let me fade when the night goes cold\n\n[Verse 2]\nNeon trembles on your skin\nLike the night is caving in\nWe were never saints or scars\nJust two shadows full of sparks\nRain runs down the boulevard\nLike it knows who we really are\nNot a wreck and not a dream\nJust a light caught in between\n\n[Chorus]\nIn the afterglow, afterglow\nWe burn slow where the lost hearts go\nYou and I in the violet smoke\nStill alive in the afterglow\nAfterglow, afterglow\nDon’t let me fade when the night goes cold\n\n[Bridge]\nIf we fall, let it be in light\nNot as ashes — more like a sign\nSomething holy, undefined\nLeaving color in the night\n\n[Build]\nAfterglow — take me higher\nAfterglow — through the fire\n\n[Final Chorus]\nIn the afterglow, afterglow\nWe burn slow where the lost hearts go\nYou and I in the violet smoke\nStill alive in the afterglow\nAfterglow, afterglow\nWe are the light that survives the cold\n\n[Outro]\nStill glowing when the world goes low\nStill yours in the afterglow",
