Midnight Spirit

[Intro]
Candle wax dripping, I forget my name
Bare arms tracing dust rings, heels sinking
Breath slips slow, floor creaks, aching low
Night’s pulse in my chest

[Verse 1]
Shadows curve in corners, side-glances fade
Beat under my skin, velvet hush
Someone at my shoulder—gone when I turn
Sweat cools on my wrists, hands open
Not sure if I’m seen or alone

[Chorus]
When the moon hits midnight, we become spirits (we become)
Body spinning faster, blurring fire in our veins
No fear in the hollow, feet rattling old bones
When the moon hits midnight, we come undone (we become)

[Verse 2]
Eyes meet, slip away, can’t hold the gaze
Strange laughter behind me—static in my hair
Every note is a tether, pulling me out
Nails digging in skin, out of time
Walls breathing with every refrain

[Bridge]
Lost—arms out, lost—pulse rushes,
Lost—teeth bared, lost—no questions,
Lost—open mouths, lost—no voices—
(SCREAM)

[Solo]
[guitar, synth, brass]

[Outro]
Only at midnight are we free to stay
