Don’t blink Stay in the afterimage Don’t fade when I blink Stay in the afterimage You’re gone but I still feel it Run — run — If love is a flash, I’m chasing the sink Stay in the afterimage ’Cause you’re the last light on my skin City lights on fast-forward, I’m racing the rain Smiling like I’m okay, but it cracks in the frame Every song on the radio sounds like “almost” Every road that I take still leads back to your ghost I keep moving so I don’t fall apart But the night keeps pulling on my heart Hold still—hear the buzz Like the air before it floods If I stop, I’ll feel it So I run through the cuts Stay in the afterimage Don’t fade when I blink Stay in the afterimage You’re gone but I still feel it Run — run — If love is a flash, I’m chasing the sink Stay in the afterimage ’Cause you’re the last light on my skin Oh-oh— afterimage Oh-oh— afterimage Hold—then go— Loop it one more time I’m laughing with strangers, I’m loud in the crowd But inside it’s a shoreline, and you’re pulling me out I scroll past the memories like they don’t hurt But they burn like a match when it hits the dirt Tell me why the good things disappear Right when they feel the most real If I lose you again Let it be in the light If I’m stuck in the dark Be my spark for the night I’m still here… I’m still here… Stay in the afterimage Don’t fade when I blink Stay in the afterimage You’re gone but I still feel it Run — run — If love is a flash, I’m chasing the sink Stay in the afterimage ’Cause you’re the last light— The last light on my skin
