Lyrical Analysis of...
Midnight Rewind
- **Midnight Rewind**
- Verse 1
- Late texts lit on my screen, you ghost inside the glow,
- Phone hums like a heartbeat when I’m trying not to show.
- Pulled your name through my thoughts like vinyl through a groove,
- Every crack, every skip —I’m replaying you.
- City sleeps but my mind’s wide, neon bleeding through,
- Took a walk past the places where I used to call you.
- You said love was a promise, folded like a note,
- Now I’m tracing all the edges of the words I never wrote.
- Pre Chorus
- And I swear the night keeps whispering your truth,
- Like a melody that hurts but somehow soothes.
- If I drown in memory, would you pull me through?
- Or are we just two echoes of a tune?
- Chorus
- You’re my midnight rewind —can’t let the chorus fade,
- Looping in my chest like a ghost that never stayed.
- I’m stuck on your frequency, lost on your line,
- Pull me from the static, baby, come back one more time.
- You’re my midnight rewind —I can’t switch the light,
- Every shadow on my ceiling spells your name tonight.
- If love is a departure, I keep running behind,
- Caught in the echo of our midnight rewind.
- Verse 2
- Told myself I’m stronger, but the script keeps flipping pages,
- Photos in my wallet like a treasure for the lonely ages.
- We burnt bridges for heat, now the roads are cold and thin,
- And the smoke still smells like everything we were in.
- Your laugh’s a memory like rain on tin, soft and sudden,
- I chase the outline of a future that we never budded.
- My heart’s on loop, your silhouette in rewind light,
- Counting every second until the day turns into night.
- Pre Chorus
- And I feel you on the highway of the things I didn’t do,
- A satellite that knows the route but not the view.
- If I fold up honesty and send it out to you,
- Would you open or would you leave it in the blue?
- Chorus
- You’re my midnight rewind —can’t let the chorus fade,
- Looping in my chest like a ghost that never stayed.
- I’m stuck on your frequency, lost on your line,
- Pull me from the static, baby, come back one more time.
- You’re my midnight rewind —I can’t switch the light,
- Every shadow on my ceiling spells your name tonight.
- If love is a departure, I keep running behind,
- Caught in the echo of our midnight rewind.
- Bridge (half sung, half rapped)
- I can feel the tremor in the silence when you leave,
- Heartbeat in my throat, all these promises deceive.
- I was trying to be fearless, you were trying to be free,
- Now the radio’s a witness to the way you left me.
- But if there’s a chance, even a thread of what we had,
- I’d stitch the night together, even if it makes me sad.
- Call it desperation, call it faith in foolish light,
- I’ll press play on yesterday and hope it’s right.
- Final Chorus (big, aching)
- You’re my midnight rewind —can’t let the chorus fade,
- Looping in my chest like a ghost that never stayed.
- I’m stuck on your frequency, lost on your line,
- Pull me from the static, baby, come back one more time.
- You’re my midnight rewind —I can’t switch the light,
- Every shadow on my ceiling spells your name tonight.
- If love is a departure, I keep running behind,
- Caught in the echo of our midnight rewind.
- Outro (soft, fading)
- Midnight keeps me honest, moonlight writes your name,
- I’m just a passenger inside a memory train.
- If you ever wanna stop the world and press rewind,
- I’ll be right where the chorus ends —waiting on the line.
