Afterlight Touch

[Verse 1]
Lip gloss on your glass
Blue light on your hands
Slow scrolling through my past
You pause like you understand
Your jacket on my chair
Boots kicked by the door
You trace my tattoo there
Ask what I got it for (mm)
[Chorus]
You got that afterlight touch
Still on my skin when the sun comes up
Every word in my ear runs rough
Soft and corrupt
Soft and corrupt
Say my name like a glitch in the dark
Fading in
Fading out of your arms
I’m losing time in the way that you rush
That afterlight touch
That afterlight touch
[Verse 2]
Your breath tastes like red wine
My lips stained in your shade
You say we’re on borrowed time
Then borrow me anyway (yeah)
You talk like a half-truth
Eyes say something else
You promise you’re bad news
That’s all I ever felt
[Chorus]
You got that afterlight touch
Still on my skin when the sun comes up
Every word in my ear runs rough
Soft and corrupt
Soft and corrupt
Say my name like a glitch in the dark
Fading in
Fading out of your arms
I’m losing time in the way that you rush
That afterlight touch
That afterlight touch
[Bridge]
Hands on my neck
Slow orbit
Heartbeat sync
Can’t ignore it
Tell me you leave
Then you stall it
We fall
Then we fall
Then we fall in (oh)
[Chorus]
You got that afterlight touch
Still on my skin when the sun comes up
Every word in my ear runs rough
Soft and corrupt
Soft and corrupt
Say my name like a glitch in the dark
Fading in
Fading out of your arms
Keep me trapped in the heat of your hush
That afterlight touch
That afterlight touch

Smoky alt-R&B with female vocals over brooding synth pads, gliding sub-bass, and a hypnotic mid-tempo groove. Verses stay close and whispered with filtered keys and sparse percussion; chorus blooms with wide backing harmonies, brighter top-line, and a thicker drum pattern. Subtle pitch-shifted ad-libs, distant vocal chops, and a reverb-soaked synth lead in the bridge push a futuristic, sensual atmosphere., beats, r&b, moody, seductive, smooth, electronic
