[Intro]
Yeah
Haha
This story about a girl I know
Yeah
[Chorus]
After dark, wonder where you are
Are you lonely like me
Driving on these backstreets?
After dark, wonder where you are
Are you thinking of me (You know)
When you're fading out?
[Verse 1]
Em said you could do anything that you set your mind on
It's crazy that it happened, my first tour had my mind blown
Time to do your meet-and-greet, the line's like a mile long
Go shake your hangover off and go put your smile on
Feelin' like Santa Claus in the mall, guess they like me
They wait in line to take a picture, come and stand by me
Just to be ushered away, we say, "Thank you," kindly
Summer 2010, the first time I met ****, yeah, uh
She said, "I know I don't have much time
But I've waited so long for this moment and there's something I have to do"
She lifted up her shirt and then she showed me her back tattoo
It's crazy when you see your own face starin' back at you
Understand you're a fan, but didn't know I meant that to you
I had that impact on you, ain't know how to react to you
You told me you loved me, so I repeated it back to you
Like what else could I say? I was so full of gratitude
Speechless and floored, ain't know I was that adored
Fast-forward two tours and twenty tattoos later, all about me
Now this means I'm forever attached to you
How the fuck did I become someone that these things would happen to? Yeah
[Chorus]
After dark (After dark), wonder where you are (Where are you?)
Are you lonely like me (Are you lonely too?)
Driving on these backstreets? (Uh)
After dark (After dark), wonder where you are (Where are you?)
Are you thinking of me
When you're fading out? (Uh)
[Verse 2]
Well, please don't misinterpret, I hope to be understood
I appreciate your appreciation, it feels good
Promise that I won't forget you, I swear I won't turn my back on you
But as an empath, just try to think of the magnitude
Pressure livin' up to the way someone imagines you
You covered your whole body in tattoos about me
Mean, it's awesome what you did, but it's somethin' I didn't ask you to
And I'll feel the pressure forever, can't break free
But it's been two or three tours in a row that I ain't seen you
I'm like, "Where did you go?" I used to see you front row
What, you don't love me no more? Or has the time finally come
That G-Eazy somethin' we all knew one day you'd outgrow?
So if I broke your heart or hurt you, would you think I was heartless?
Or did you just move on and find a new favorite artist?
Or did I disappoint you? Was that last album garbage?
Regardless, I'll be with you 'til your body's a carcass, you know
[Chorus]
After dark (After dark), wonder where you are (Where are you?)
Are you lonely like me (Are you lonely too?)
Driving on these backstreets? (Uh)
After dark (After dark), wonder where you are (Where are you?)
Are you thinking of me
When you're fading out?
[Bridge]
If you fall in love with it, you better go run with it
But then you'll be stuck with it, your skin and your blood's in it
You poured your heart out and you poured all your guts in it
But what if you walk away, one day, you felt done with it?
You finish, love starts to diminish
But it's hard to relinquish it when it's part of your image
Should I try and reach out? Should I send this to you?
I mean, we love to be loved, but I think loneliness connected us too, yeah
[Chorus]
After dark, wonder where you are
Are you lonely like me
Driving on these backstreets?
After dark (After dark), wonder where you are (Where are you?)
Are you thinking of me
When you're fading out?
[Outro]
God
I'll be alright, I'll be, I'll be alright
Oh my God
