Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Angin malam Through the alley gap Salt on my tongue Rust on the tap Bare feet on stone Hear a shutter shake Someone laughs too loud Then the silence breaks [Chorus] This is Nusa Noir Where the waves talk low Calm in the eyes But the embers glow We sway like smoke While the law walks by Say a prayer in a joke Keep the thunder inside [Verse 2] Cheap rum burning In a paper cup Old dog sleeping Never waking up Motorbike ghosts Slip past Headlight thin Every quiet door Got a riot within [Chorus] This is Nusa Noir Where the waves talk low Calm in the eyes But the embers glow We sway like smoke While the law walks by Say a prayer in a joke Keep the thunder inside [Bridge] Slow heart Slow hands Playing cool Playing kind (oh yeah) But the tide keeps a count That it never shows on the sand [Chorus] This is Nusa Noir Where the waves talk low Calm in the eyes But the embers glow We sway like smoke While the law walks by Say a prayer in a joke Keep the thunder inside Keep the thunder inside (angin malam, angin malam)

Final chorus leans into gritty vocal grit before melting into a spaced-out, echoing outro., reggae, blues, slow
