Late night, engine hum
City lights go numb
Shadows on the glass
Moments slipping past
We don't say too much
Just a silent touch
Something in between
What we were and been
Fading in and out
What it's all about
No need to explain
Running through my brain
Feel it in the sound
Spinning us around
Every little spark
Glowing in the dark
We go overdrive
Somewhere in the night
No wrong, no right
Just the afterlight
We don't need a name
For this kind of flame
Comes and goes the same
But it stays the same
Oh oh oh, don't slow down
Oh oh oh, lost not found
Every second pulling me
In too deep
Oh oh oh, lights collide
Oh oh oh, let it ride
In the blur of you and me
Set me free
Passing by your street
Heart skips every beat
But I keep it cool
Breaking every rule
Never looking back
Staying off that track
Still it lingers on
Even when you're gone
Feel it in the sound
Spinning us around
Every little spark
Glowing in the dark
We go overdrive
Somewhere in the night
No wrong, no right
Just the afterlight
We don't need a name
For this kind of flame
Comes and goes the same
But it stays the same
Maybe just a phase
Maybe just a haze
But it hits the same
Every time you say
Nothing we can hold
Nothing we can own
Still it pulls me in
Like I've never known
Oh oh oh, don't slow down
Oh oh oh, lost not found
Every second pulling me
In too deep
Oh oh oh, lights collide
Oh oh oh, let it ride
In the blur of you and me
Set me free
Late night, engine hum
Now we're coming undone
Still I feel the drive
Somewhere still alive

Passing Spark
aokiemi
This album is an exploration of emotions that cannot easily be put into words.
Instead of using Japanese lyrics, it focuses on melody, atmosphere, and flow to communicate feeling.
The central theme, "Almost Ours," reflects moments that felt within reach connections, memories, and possibilities that never fully became ours.
It captures fragments of joy, misalignment, afterglow, and the quiet that follows.
All of these are reimagined through catchy, melodic EDM.
This album is also designed with driving in mind.
Late-night roads, sunset highways, and those in-between moments where thoughts drift freely.
The music moves with the scenery, allowing emotions to settle naturally.
Rather than leaving a sense of loss,
this work aims to leave a feeling of quiet release.
